Was recently developed by the USDA. Could hit the market soon.
However, to the the best of my knowledge, N ceranae by itself has yet to be
connected directly with winter losses by any study anywhere in the world!
The DATA on N ceranae are conflicting, as are the OPINIONS. It appears to
me that N ceranae in the majority of areas is not all that harmful alone,
but can explode under certain circumstances, likely related to nutrition,
viruses, and pesticides/miticides. But that is just an educated guess--not
a conclusion.
