Warning to all beekeepers in the east Warwickshire area of England.  There
has been a very large case of AFB in the Nuneaton and Coventry area.  A large
beekeeper with many hives has multiple cases, I have heard over a 100
colonies infected.
So If you are near by check you hive, listen out for news from the Bee Unit
of CSL and don't accept any equipment or bees without considering if they are
safe!  Please remember that if you suspect you have AFB or EFB then by law
you must contact the CSL or you local bee inspector.

Bad news for us in the area.

Bob
