Have there been any documented CCD symptoms from colonies treated with Formic Acid? The reason for the question 
is that there seems to be no CCD in Canada and they are strong on the use of Formic Acid treatments.

It has been reported that some who use approved Formic Acid treatments exclusively also have no nosema. Might be 
one of those QED moments. You get rid of mites, nosema, and, with that, low virus loads and healthy bees. Plus, 
it is an approved treatment.
