<keeps your bee hives healthy year around >
 
I'm sorry, but anyone who makes a sweeping promise such as this is a  
fraud.  None of us know enough about bees, pathogens, pesticides, bee  stressors, 
to make a product that would assure bee health.
 
Ask for any evidence of the claim  - some form of clinical studies,  not 
feel good statements.
 
When CCD was first identified, a guy in the southern states was going  
around with a little box fitted with winking lights.  He'd scan your hives,  or 
if you were far away, all you had to do was send in photos of your  hives.  
He's assess what was wrong with the bees, make up a formula to cure  them, 
and send it to you at an outrageous price.  He'd sell you the box  with the 
blinking lights for even more money.  Worst part of this, we had  beekeepers 
asking us whether they should buy.
