Bumblebees Disappearing

Bumblebees Disappearing: Just two years ago bumblebees had found a way into my attic and built a nest. I got stung a couple of times trying to prevent their entry. (I was successful). However, I always liked bumblebees because their black and yellow coats sitting on flowers gathering nectar always interested me as a child. However, now I'm hearing that bumblebees much like honeybees are disappearing so quick that no one has had time to put them on the list of endangered species.
The following article documents this:
