[QUOTE="John B, post: 11201, member: 207"] Close down all hive movement for the whole country ideally or at least the state immediately. Interview every beekeeper within 2000 km of the outbreak on their hive movements.Bring in a mandatory million-dollar fine and 10 years in prison for nonreporting and breaking movement controls.Buy a #### ton of fipronol .Lock up the loony leftists greens. It won't be easy to eradicate and there are also a lot of native species of bees in Australia which will have to be considered in any poisoning attempt . Paying prompt and reasonable compensation to beekeepers would also help. My final piece of advice is that if eradication is not going to be attempted then save everybody a lot of hassle and just open things up. There are already controls on movement between Western Australia and the rest of the country and these are the only ones that would make any sense . [/QUOTE]
