I have just been informed that the fellow I purchased 100 supers from has
terramyacin resistant AFB.  He used excluders on all of his hives and
there's no evidence of scale or brood in the supers.  My local inspector
doesn't know if AFB would be a problem or not, but suggests being safe and
not using the equipment.  He is not sure if it would be a problem.  Any
information or opinions out there?  Thanks for your help.
