Social insects fight disease as a collective. Their colonies are protected against disease by the combination of the individual immune defenses of all colony members and their jointly performed nest- and colony-hygiene. This social immunity is achieved by cooperative behaviors to reduce pathogen load of the colony and to prevent transmission along the social interaction networks of colony members. Individual and social immunity interact: performance of sanitary care can affect future disease susceptibility, yet also vice versa, individuals differing in susceptibility adjust their sanitary care performance to their individual risk of infection. I present the integrated approach we use to understand how colony protection arises from the individual and collective actions of colony members and how it affects pathogen communities and hence disease ecology.
