John Kefuss is a legend in the arena of bee breeding. He is known for his 007 Bond method of "live and let die," a hard and fast method to select for mite and disease resistant traits. John holds a BS in entomology, and a PhD in zoology. He worked under the rock star bee scientist Walter Rothenbuhler at OH state. He has been around the world and has many awesome experiences to share. He continues to inspire up and coming queen breeders.
John and I had a great conversation covering some of the beekeeping greats he has met or worked with like Walter Rothenbuhler and Steve Taber. We covered his approach to selecting for resistant traits, and several fun stories. We also touched on Asian hornets which have been assaulting honey bee colonies in his home turf in France.
