I have a copy of the photo and the test line was absolutely clear, the control line was a nice strong blue.

I have done the EFB test once only, and the result was very faint but was there.

I have never had any problem with the AFB test, but I was told by Inspectors in Northern Ireland that they had had false negatives.

There was absolutely no hint of a 'test' line after the three minutes 
suggested, a neither was there any 30 mins later.

Our SBI had similar problems with the AFB kit when conducting a training 
session for beekeepers.
