I did voice my disproval to the state bee inspector of Illinois at a
Illinois state bee meeting I attended about wanting  to have the beekeeper
get a permit & inspection in Illinois EVERY TIME YOU MOVED HIVES FROM ONE
COUNTY TO ANOTHER.

--------------------

Being from Illinois, I have known no other system.  We have 102 counties and
only a half dozen bee inspectors - part-time bee inspectors.  We could keep
them quite busy.  We have only a few migratory beekeepers, but they should,
I guess, have their bees inspected every time they move to a new orchard in
a different county.  I don't know if they do that.

I am curious. Do any other states require inspection to move bees
intra-state?
