 Hello Bill  & Aaron plus ALL beekeepers,
 
 I have been reading some of the posts on Mavrik and my blood pressure
went up.We need to cut down the use of chemicals in the hive and for all
of our wellbeing don't go out and experiment with all of beekeeping in the
balance.We need no negative press about honey that is tainted with
chemicals.Just read a little about wax and you will see how chemicals can
stay in your hives and get stronger over time with the use of some
chemicals.We are close to solving the Varroa mite problem with essential
oils.We need a genetic fix for the long term and that will come about.
Lets don't blow all of our futures with a bullet in the foot. Honey is
very special in its natural form.Man needs to keep it that way.
 We will always have the 10% that will not listen and don't care. Thats
why we have prisons. Don't follow the rules and we will have a
problem.That should not be hard to understand.
 
 I hope everyone takes this as something that is serious and could cost
all of us our money and maybe our jobs.
 
Best Regards
Roy
