Re: Digest Number 19


reply to Doreen about thinking that spraying with BT kills the bees-- I spray about every two weeks--apple trees which are located above my bee hive--I usually spray in the morning while the hive is in the shade and the bees are not warm enough and not up and about yet--have been doing this for many years and have not killed my bees yet!  (I really do not like to use chemicals and since BT is a Bacterium I rationalize that using it is better than using a chemical)---but even if it were a chemical--use common sense--if you think it kills bees--do not spray when bees are about!  When I do not spray often, I get cherries and apples filled with worms--yuk!
