Bee-l'ers: I have just had a colony diagnosed with American Foulbrood. I know I need to burn the frames and combs. I have heard however that the body, bottom board and cover can be reused if they are thoroughly scorched with a propane torch. Is this correct? Secondly, despite preventative terramycin treatments, the nearby strong colony that was robbing the diseased colony appears to also have AFB. It is not widespread yet, only on a few combs in a 2 deep super hive. They are otherwise strong and there is a lot of healthy brood. Is there any hope to continue treating it? I would like to think I could pull it through since it is otherwise in good shape. Thanks for any advice. George
