[QUOTE="John B, post: 6461, member: 207"] Anything I say against this idea will get me labelled as a cruel heartless beekeeper who doesn't care about his bees and their happiness. The whole thing is well-intentioned and that is only good point. This sort of document is so open to interpretation it's not funny. I could for instance put a very good case under this for banning formic acid treatment and I'm sure Peta or safe could come up with dozens of interpretations that would make beekeeping as we know it impractical and unviable. I believe there is nothing in this document that I don't already try and do. I also know that I have unintentionally broken every rule that they have their at least once in the last 50 years and often many times. To open to interpretation, not enforceable, not practical.
