Seems to me that I have heard some rumblings that feeding bees protein was as effective in combating nosema as using fumagillin. Seems syrup is still the gold standard for fumagillin feeding, although some have claims success with dusting and patties. Apparently putting fumagillin into patties is not helpful in spite of some previous reports or speculation to the contrary. Has anyone here got any real data on whether feeding protein has a positive effect against nosema? Amounts, duration, timing? *********************************************** The BEE-L mailing list is powered by L-Soft's renowned LISTSERV(R) list management software.
