I find it interesting that when I said the above 3 months ago the list cried
foul! At least now the list has caught up with those on the front lines. The
above has been standard practice in commercial operations for months.
Lately I tire of trying to bring industry news first on BEE-L. I also will
say that even the recommendations of Eric Mussen will not cure severe cases
of nosema ceranae. However some commercial beeks have found the right
combination.
