Bill,
Call your local Cooperative Extension Office. They should be able to help you
with these questions. Their number is 919-496-3344. Also, you have Dr John
Ambrose of the NCSU Entomology Department who is the State Beekeeping
Specialist. His number is 515-1660. Either one of these sources should be
helpful to you.
Good luck!
Kenny
