More than 25 million bees escaped earlier this week when a semitrailer truck that was hauling them overturned on a highway in Utah, according to law enforcement and beekeepers.
“We were telling drivers to roll up windows and keep moving,” he said in a phone interview on Saturday.
Firefighters were alerted Monday by the trucking company that had been in contact with the owner of the bees. The company said the owner wanted them to be sprayed down with firefighting foam for safety and liability reasons, Richey said., told The Post the truck was transporting 416 boxes of bees, each of which typically carries 50,000 or more, to be used for pollination of food crops on the West Coast. She said the fire suppressant is deadly to bees and only about 10 percent of them survived.
Volunteers rescued bees that had migrated to nearby sagebrush along the highway, using lopping shears to cut away layers of the shrubs containing the bees and shaking them into boxes, Arthur said.She said there were also some intact colonies that were buried beneath the rubble, which had protected them from the firefighting foam.
