Hi all,

Just got off the phone with someone who is the president of a beekeeping
assocation here in Ontario.  I had asked her if she knew of anyone in her
area that made there own formic acid pads.  When she said no I questioned
her about a well known, used to be, perhaps still is, scientist in the
beekeeping industry who lives near her.  She said he didn't because he
believed that there was hardly any brood production accomplished as long as
the formic was on.  Has anyone found this to be the case?  Or has anyone
done experiments with it to see how it affects the brood?  I have not
noticed anything.  Would appreciate the input.

Thanks,

Carm
