Questions are based on the following passage.
The small hive beetle, Aethina tumida (Order Coleoptera; Family Nitidulidae), was first discovered in Florida in June of 1998 and has now been found in six other states. George, South Carolina, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Minnesota. To date, the beetle has not been found in Virginia. but the movement of migratory beekeepers from Florida may have transported the beetle to other states. The recent finding also indicates transport of the beetles in packages. The small hive beetle can be a destructive pest of honey bee colonies, causing damage to comp, stored honey, and pollen. If a beetle infestation is sufficiently heavy, they may cause bees to abandon their hive. The beetles can also be a pest of stored combs and honey (in the comb) awaiting extraction. Beetle larvae may tunnel through combs of honey, causing discolouration and fermentation of honey.
The small hive beetle is undesirable for all of the following reasons except
the harm it can cause to the honeycomb
potential deleterious effects to stored honey and pollen
the possibility that bees may flee the hive
the probability of the beetle attacking people and animals
The small hive beetle is undesirable for all the given reasons except the probability of the beetle attacking people and animals
