Hi Could anybody offer some clear advise please on the following problems on one of my hives...
1/ chalkbrood.. I am getting an increasing amount of chalkbrood on the correx sheet everyday..treated with Bee Vital chalk brood (MycoStop) didn't seen to have any affect..
2/ same hive evidence of digestion problems with poo streaks on and around hive entrance also about ten bees lying about on the ground fairly lifeless...not sure if it's nosema, Would it perhaps be the bee vital (MycoStop) treatment may have upset them?
Inspected hive about a week ago all seemed ok save for the chalkbrood..
Really desperate for some sound advise..
Thanks D
