Hello All

An exchange of posts occurred recently on the Irish Beekeeping Discussion
List. The main point being made by some contributors was that they had
doubts about the use of FGMO.

I sent the following reply.

beekeepers in the USA and Canada over a period of two years, that it works.
So I am using it. I suppose that I could spend the next 12 months arguing
the toss about it - but in my view that is just an utter waste of time.

sheep dip (flumethrin).
