About FGMO. Why are we so concerned about ourselfs?
The discussion is going on and on about the honey and the wax we want to
sell. Okay, but. . .
Does nobody feel any concern with the bees flying out for pollen while
there body is covered with a thin layer of oil? This oil must come into the
food for the home bees and the larvae! Can larvae and bees digest this oil?
Can they digest vegetable oil as well or better?
 
Question before I start using the Rodrigez-method of fighting varroa; has
there been noticed any influence on the brood developement during the
application of oil?
