Hello All
Thanks to George Imirie for his posting.
I believe that many of the objections raised at this time against FGMO have
their roots in the performance or more specifically in the lack of
performance of the treatment in the past when it was under development.
In the last two years or so, the method of delivery of FGMO has been
improved out of all proportion to what it was in the past, namely the use of
the fogger and the cords. It is a pity that beekeepers in the past had
problems with FGMO, but is this not often the case when something is under
development? Of course it could be suggested that the original delivery
system should not have been promoted until more extensive tests were carried
out, but that is speaking with the benefit of hindsight. And unlike the
multi billion dollar chemical companies, Dr Rodriguez did not have access to
vast numbers of dollars, so things took longer.
But that is in the past, and we are now dealing with a far more
sophisticated method of delivering FGMO, which is now showing good results
around the world.
I suppose that there is still truth in the old adage 'the proof of the
pudding is in the eating'.
Sincerely
