Hopefully, "forward thinking" beekeepers will not slip some queens into

Meanwhile, if you had PR bees, even if they weren't bothering anyone, if they were ID'd as African they could be taken from you by the state and you could be fined for harboring a prohibited species. I am not suggesting this is a likelihood, but why bother.
