Hello all

[DrummerDon]

Hi all,
I am a small size beekeeper in Victoria Australia. I have around two dozen hives at present although I have had several more but I have had a battle with AFB. I am in the process of building 50 nuke boxes so I can build up my colonies this coming spring.
Cheers,

Welcome. Hope you win your battle with AFB.

Where do you think it came from and what are you doing to try to get rid of it?

Hi DrummerDon - welcome to the madhouse My son is just back from Australia, mainly west coast, and he said he hardly saw a bee at all - Out of interest is beekeeping in Australia more area based than all over the place?
