The radiation from these devices, which is electromagnetic in nature, is interfering with the homing ability of the bees. This interference is inhibiting worker bees from returning to their hives when foraging for pollen. This starves the hives of the sweet, sweet pollen those workers return with.

Bees collect sticky pollen from flowering plants, which accumulates on their well adapted bodies and limbs, and is removed upon their return from the hive. This excellent adaptation may also be the property that will allow them to be protected from cellphone radiation.

As it is unlikely human bees - ahem, beings - will be able to change their habitual behaviour of using cellphones, a more creative approach will have to be used to solve this problem. Large, beautiful, fragrant, vibrant yet fake flowers placed in the periphery of bee nesting areas may be that solution.

These flowers will dispense a sticky pollen-like substance composed of a nonmetallic, carbon resistor material that will disrupt the radiation before it scrambles the little bees' circuits. The bees will land on the flowers and the pollen will coat their bodies, acting as a protective barriers.

Bees that return to the hive will coat other bees that they brush against with this material. These bees will then be able to scout out other sources of pollen and return to the hive unaffected by radiation.
