SaveTheHives is an organization of beekeepers, citizen scientists and researchers that is trying to establish a national database of honey bee information. They want to encourage the use of web-based technology to collect, map and share information about honey bees to further the research of Colony Collapse Disorder and other problems facing the health of the honey bee population.

The site hopes to encourage beekeepers and concerned citizens to help find and enter the locations of feral honey bee hives throughout the United States.

If you know the location of a hive of honey bees, you are ready to help!   Whether it’s in a tree, building or house or in the ground, if they are honey bees, report their location.
