Some time back, we heard this from Bob:
>Interesting experiment is in progress in Florida by the
> USDA-ARS & Dave Hackenberg.
>1. CCD dead-out untreated
>2.CCD dead out brood comb irradiated
>3. CCD dead out honey supers (no brood)
>4.CCD dead out brood boxes fumigated as I posted with acetic acid.
>Irradiated & acetic acid doing fine. ( 2 & 4)
>problems in group 1 & 3 I have been told...
>" ...initial observation was that the differences between treated
> and untreated colonies was day & night"
What are the latest observations and the experience of those on this list?
I have experienced what looks a lot like CCD to me and am wondering
about re-using the deadouts.
Seems to me that I heard that the problem with re-use diminished with
time. Is that true?
