Identifying and Mitigating Foulbrood and Reducing the Use of Antibiotics

Description

This guide provides information on both American and European Foulbrood, details steps for testing and management, and explains what measures beekeepers should take to prevent the pathogens from entering their operation—and if they do, how to minimize their spread. If antibiotics must be used, the guide details how beekeepers and veterinarians can work together to determine proper antibiotic use to keep bacteria from developing resistance.
