The objective here is to establish a means of reporting bee pests and diseases that one can visually identify. The Nosema/virus subForum is for those pathogens that require a microscope or a laboratory assay to detect and identify. We will be working on a reporting form to facilitate reporting. Remember, all beekeeping is local, so please provide a location where you have seen or know of a problem. A GPS latitude/longitude location is ideal, but a Zip Code will locate the part of the country without pin-pointing the location or beekeeper.

I heard that American foulbrood (AFB) is the most serious brood disease of honey bees. AFB is caused by a spore-forming bacteria, Paenibacillus larvae; that is specific to honey bees
