Rod,
Just get hold of Laurence Cutts, Chief Apiary Inspector for Florida.
One of his inspectors, David Westervelt, is the real knowledge about the SHB.
 They are a real problem; and have been found wintered over in Minnesota, so
all of our eastern states are about to be infected.
I surely believe that your own Dr. Mike Hood knows a great deal about them
because they were found in many shipments shipped by a South Carolina
breeder.
