Paragraph 8 of the exemption granted to the Florida Department of
Agriculture  for the use of Coumaphos by the U.S. E.P.A. on January 20,
2000  states: "Coumaphos has a high octano/water coefficient and is
lipophilic, if residues were to occur they would be expected to be found
in the beeswax.  To insure the use is non-food, a restriction is
required prohibiting the sale of comb honey from treated hives.
Therefore, the following statement should be added to the label:  "Sale
of Comb honey from hives treated with coumaphos is prohibited."     The
last sentence is in bold print.
