> I don't use salt at all. You're the first to ever mention it. Actually, we did quite a go-round on this topic in the archives. The upshot was that nobody could say which salts, in which amounts were good for bees and which salts, in which amounts were toxic. The books mentioned some salts are toxic, but weren't too specific on amounts, so most of us who consider ourselves 'prudent' decided that -- since we did not know -- and since bees do fine without added salts -- that we would not use something we did not understand. allen http://www.honeybeeworld.com :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: -- Visit www.honeybeeworld.com/BEE-L for rules, FAQ and other info --- ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
