   A member of our bee association asked about the danger from hanta
virus when cleaning mouse residue/nests out of bee hive bodies.  Anyone
want to address this?
   (Hanta virus can be transmitted from mice to humans by contact with
mouse feces.  The virus has been found in the southwest and northeast
U.S.  The virus can cause death in humans.)
