It's a practical: how to prepare samples, microscope use, etal.
So if you can spare 30 freshly killed bees ( frozen & thaw out during the day) we'll check for nosema and hopefully DFW etc before the bees are ground up.
As there may not be many samples, I'll call by the Assoc A and pick up some capped drone broad we pulled Saturday to check and show varroa and drone larvae.
