MY FIRST ATTEMPT TO SEND THIS FAILED, SO I HOPE IT IS NOT A SECOND MESSAGE
FOR SOME.
I noticed a decreasing population in one of my two hives and upon
inspection yesterday noticed many dead larva. From the descriptions in the
bee book, I am assuming it must be foulbrood, although I can't possitively
tell if it is Afb or EFB. The larva were rather large but still white.
Some capped cells had been cracked open. The questions I have are:
What do I need to do to tell for sure?
Is there still something I can do, such as medicate, to treat the problem?
If I have to destroy the hive, can I harvest the honey and use that?
IF I want to send a samply to a lab, where can I send it?
I have two hives and this is only my second year in this.
Any help would be appreciated.
