>. I am not sure how this translates to disinfecting nosema spores, but I
would imagine that simply misting combs with dilute bleach would do very
little (if anything).

Pete, N ceranae spores are far more fragile than AFB spores.  Dr. Robert
Cramer found bleach to be effective for killing them, and also other bases
(bleach acts as both an acid and a base, and as a source of toxic chlorine).
 I don't remember what concentration he used.
