Hello-

I found your site from reading Linda's Bee Blog, which I found extremely informative. I'm a first year beekeeper in Columbus, Ohio (right in the heart of the city) with one hive nestled into a corner of my backyard. I went through the Central Ohio Beekeepers Association Bee School in March and my bees arrived in April. I hope to use only natural methods to control disease and parasites. So far I'm up against varroa and the small hive beetle and that's what led me to Beemaster--to find a way to eradicate those pesky little buggers from my hive! There's seems to be a lot of experience and sage advice shared here and I look forward to learning from you.

X2 on the welcome! Sorry that SHB's brought you to Beemaster. If you have not already, do a search and read the past threads about them. While you are at it go ahead and bone up on wax moths, another pest.

Feel free to chime in anytime,

Steve
