Does anyone know the status of the approval process for making formic acid
a legal treatment in the US?  What is the holdup?  Is there a name and address
of someone you could write to to voice your support and/or complain about the
slow movement of the approval process?
 
Also, is it possible to purchase small quantities of formic acid for
experimental use (treatment before or after the honey flow)?
 
And what about NEEM oil?  A friend of mine asked if anyone has tried it.  Are
there any known problems with its use in the hive from an experimental
standpoint?  Yes, it's not an approved substance in the US, but are there any
known detrimental effects?  Providing that there is a possibility of safety,
is there a source for purchasing small quantities?
