Nearly 700 communities across the United States, mostly in the Northeast and Great Lakes region, rely on aging combined sewer systems that release untreated waste into waterways during heavy rains.

As severe storms become more frequent, environmental experts note that protecting connected river systems requires both massive infrastructure upgrades and natural stormwater management.

The Varroa mite is a growing threat to honey bee colonies, adapting to Ohio's climate and resisting traditional miticides. The mites are found virtually anywhere that honey bees live, researchers say. The parasites burrow into the hexagonal cells that make up honeybee colonies; a family of mites feeds on developing bees, according to Reed Johnson, a professor of entomology at Ohio State University.

"They’re small, about the size of a pinhead,” Johnson said. “But relative to the size of a honey bee, it’s a huge parasite. It’s like us having a parasitic squirrel.”

Researchers at Central State University are fighting back by developing genetic stocks of mite-resistant bees to protect vital pollinators and our region's crops. Read the full story at the link in the comments ⬇️

Meet the gentle giant of the canopy: the Hickory Horned Devil.

This massive caterpillar looks terrifying, but it lacks venom and is totally harmless to humans. When it finishes its treetop feast, it dive-bombs to the forest floor to burrow into the soil. Up to 11 months later, it emerges as the spectacular Royal Walnut Moth, the largest moth species by mass in North America. Our nature columnist Tami Gingrich has been raising these beauties for years.

Sadly, these native moths are declining. Because they only live for about a week as adults, artificial lights easily distract them from their vital mission to mate and lay eggs. You can protect these nocturnal wonders simply by flipping your outdoor light switch off before bed.
