I wish to add a question about the greater wax moth. Is there a known
mechanism for the *adults* to take EFB from one colony to another? I
have not had a satisfactory answer to this one having read on dee
lusby's site a paper which refers to the larvae having the bacteria in
their faeces. I can only presume this is likely even though they aren't
supposed to defecate: in/on their eggs - body surface?
