>How well does thymolated syrup work for nosema? >we've also tried fumagilin, but now we seem to be at an impasse. We need to know what the symptoms are. Do you have a high spore count? Are the bees suffering from nosema caused symtoms? If not, it is ill advised to treat with an expensive antibiotic. Thymol in syrup is not approved and I would caution you against feeding non-approved chemicals to your bees. I know beekeepers all over the world do it, but if you get caught they won't help you. plb6 *********************************************** The BEE-L mailing list is powered by L-Soft's renowned LISTSERV(R) list management software.
