No, I didn't mean that. I have bees in the damp woods now and had them in arid San Diego before. It doesn't mean beekeeping in poor regions isn't doable or unprofitable. I simply meant that one has to be on guard for weather related symptoms, and not put it down to something else. Of course, unfavorable conditions may lead to disease, but they can also cause more general malaise. I doubt a big spoonful of cider vinegar is going to be much help.
