- Police search for thieves who allegedly stole $150,000 worth of beehives from rural NSW property
Thieves allegedly stole $150,000 worth of beehives from a rural NSW property, with 80 beehive boxes containing active colonies taken. The theft is believed to have occurred between March 31 and May 6. Local beekeeper Mitch McLennan says hive thefts have become commonplace due to the rise of parasitic varroa mites.
