Véto-pharma Bee Science

Did you know? Over 75% of the world’s major crops depend on the pollination of edible plant species, including fruits, vegetables, nuts, coffee, and more. Moreover, more than 30% of our food depends on bee pollination. However, the health and survival of this species are seriously under threat.

Fully aware of these challenges, the Véto-pharma Bee Science department has been committed to bee health for over 25 years. We support the beekeeping sector by staying attentive to its needs and developing innovative, safe, and effective solutions. Our efforts are paying off, as our products help support over six million colonies each year!

Beyond our current product range, we are making significant investments for the future. These include research projects aimed at developing new treatments for Varroa, solutions for trapping hornets, and high-quality nutritional products, thus supporting beekeepers in their work.

Our Areas of Action

Fight against Varroa

Varroa destructor is a parasitic mite that weakens honeybees, facilitating the spread of diseases and viruses. Fighting against Varroa is essential to ensure the survival of bee colonies, which play an essential role in pollination and sustaining global food production.

Asian hornet trapping

These formidable predators attack hives and devastate colonies, affecting colony survival, honey production, and pollination. By developing effective solutions to trap hornets, we can curb their proliferation and maintain the balance of ecosystems.

Bee nutrition

Feeding bees is often simplified to merely providing sugar, but it is actually much more complex. It requires special attention, particularly during rainy seasons or in areas with limited floral diversity.

Adequate nutritional intake, both in terms of quantity and quality, is essential to ensure the proper functioning of the colonies!
