ScientificBeekeeping is a not-for-profit enterprise. Our motivation is the notes of appreciation that we received from beekeepers worldwide, thanking us for how valuable my information has been to them. All donations go towards website maintenance, my hired help, research costs (thousands of dollars per year), and some re-donated to noteworthy projects by other groups. I guarantee that every penny is pinched and well spent!
