a Bill T snip followed by my comments... 

Interesting that both thymol and Clorox are " highly antibacterial and
antifungal" yet they are fed regularly to bees, more the former than the
latter, and Randy has seen some benefit from Clorox in feed when used to
combat fermentation.

> back when they did the Honeybee Health Initiative I did notice that one item that showed up in what I thought was significant levels was the amount of thymol. I am guessing beekeepers still use this and I have wondered at what level does thymol negatively impact the bees???
