I recently saw a recommendation to only buy USDA Certified Packages of bees. I Googled Certified, didn't find anything regarding USDA and package bees. I do know that packages and queens and colonies shipped across state lines need a health inspection, but that's usually by state inspectors, not USDA. So what's a USDA Certified Package of Bees? *********************************************** The BEE-L mailing list is powered by L-Soft's renowned LISTSERV(R) list management software.
