BUYING BEES? When buying bees or queens you should satisfy yourself as to their origin, temperment and health. Advice is available from the National Bee Unit (Guidance note: Advice for Obtaining Honey Bees) and from the BBKA (BBKA Standard Nucleus Guidance Notes). Also see the article 'Buying and Selling Bees' by Ken Basterfield in BeeCraft, Feb 2012. The Society recommends that you purchase nucleus, colonies and queen bees from recognised UK based bee farmers who have signed up for the Disease Assurance Scheme for Honeybees.
SECOND HAND EQUIPMENT should be carefully sterilised before use. See https://secure.fera.defra.gov.uk/beebase for information on how to do this.
