Most of the bees that are in Fla. are not from Fla. they just come here
with their many problems stay here a little while and take them and
their problems to you and sometimes leave their problems with us. Fla
beekeepers have a lot more to put up with than most beekeepers in the
U.S. To a degree most of the problems that we are accused of were sent
to us from other states or countries and spread by beekeepers from other
states.  We did not invent these problems. I'm very sorrry that we have
a great place to keep bees and a lot of bees from nearly all over the
U.S. come here this is not our doing.
