Hundreds of thousands of dollars have already been lost in Fresno County as a result of a massive bee die-off unlike any the county has ever seen.

Although the level of damage is certain to grow, who’s responsible remains a serious question.

High humidity, pesticides and the almond bloom could all be to blame and Capital Public Radio’s Julia Mitric is in Fresno County doing the detective work.

She joins Insight to discuss her investigation so far.
