This situation leads to the end of the colony because the queen bee out of food. Lead researcher Daniel Favre says his study a relationship between the growing of cellphones and declining bee populations. Favre notes that earlier studies failed to find any such link and thus accepts his are “highly controversial”.

However, active and cellphones confused the bees and caused them to fly from and leave the hive. The study says "the behavior of the bees remained perturbed for up to 12 hours after the of the prolonged mobile phone communication," Favre writes. "This observation means that honeybees are to…electromagnetic fields by the mobile telephones."
