EFB West Norfolk

[Foxylad]

Found suspected EFB in one of my hives yesterday. Bee inspector is coming on Tuesday to check my colony’s. Suspect hive was destroyed last night and I’ve saved two frames for testing by the BI. Hive was strong across 11 frames. Only found two frames which didn’t look right. Hopefully caught it early.
Just need to trace now where it originated from.

suspected EFB

Looks positive, but did you test with an LFD?

I have not tested the frames as I do not have a test. Been told to save two frames. For the bee inspector to test on Tuesday. The rest were burnt this morning. Never had EFB, so it’s all very new.
