The UK's CSL National Bee Unit website can  be reached at
www.nationalbeeunit.com as usual. I don't know why you couldn't reach
it, but I checked this morning and the site is working normally.

Whilst on the subject, I'll use the opportunity to publicise some of the
features of the site, which include:

* Information of the function and activities of the CSL National Bee
Unit (located in York, England)
* The online-varroa calculator mentioned above. This used to interpret
varroa monitoring data, predict varroa population growth and help with
deciding on timing of varroa treatment.
* Information on NBUs bee health inspection programme in England and
Wales
* CSL/DEFRA Advisory leaflets for beekeepers (e.g. foulbrood, managing
varroa, small hive beetle)
* Information on varroa resistance to pyrethroids in the UK
* Information on the NBU's bee health research programme.
* Information on monitoring UK honey for residues of veterinary
medicines
