Honey bees face many threats - such viruses, mites and pesticides, but also threats from their own kind - robber bees. When nectar becomes scarce at the end of the summer and into autumn, then bees will seek food wherever they can find it - like honey from other colonies. From the robber bees ‘point of view’, this is simply another form of foraging behaviour. This robbing of honey deprives a colony of an important winter resource.
