A Sunshine Coast beekeeper raises concerns native bee hives are being inadvertently damaged during B2N tree clearing.

🚨 CRITICAL native bee colonies may have been lost during vegetation clearing for the Beerburrum to Nambour rail project, a Sunshine Coast beekeeper has warned, as the varroa mite crisis puts growing pressure on the region’s pollinators.

Brymac Native Bees owner Dean Bryant, who has worked with native stingless bees for 21 years, said demand for native hives had surged as European honeybees were hit by varroa mite.

Mr Bryant said he feared wild colonies nesting inside tree hollows may have been inadvertently destroyed during vegetation clearing along the Beerburrum to Beerwah rail corridor for Stage 1 of the Beerburrum to Nambour (B2N) Rail Upgrade.

The Department of Transport and Main Roads (TMR) rejected suggestions native bee colonies had been overlooked, saying qualified ecologists conducted surveys before clearing and both native and European beehives were successfully relocated.

“The B2N Stage 1 project team works closely with ecologists to ensure all clearing activities are conducted in compliance with legislative requirements and with minimal impact on wildlife,” a TMR spokesperson said.
