Backyard beekeepers beware as biosecurity breach concerns honey industry

It has developed the new Bee 123 form, which can be downloaded through the Survey 123 app and used to report findings.

"We're also calling on everyone if they're buying a bucket of honey from their neighbour next door, or maybe it's at the local farmers market, do your part for protecting the welfare of honey bees in the state and ask that person if they're a registered beekeeper," Ms Martin said. "Protecting biosecurity across the livestock and our horticultural industries is absolutely paramount to our freedoms as Australians to access beautiful, healthy produce and also that world class honey that we so proudly produced within Queensland."On her lavender and bee farm west of Toowoomba, Alicia Volhand has created a bee sponsorship program where locals and businesses can pay for their own beehive, which is taken care of and kept on her property.

"I've run beekeeping workshops just to teach people how to look after them if they want to keep them but also if they're not in a position to do so, then having someone who knows a bit about how to look after them is an easy way for them to support the environment. "The sponsor pays to set up the hive — so hardware, boxes, frames — and buy the bees and in return they get to choose the colour of the hive and have their name stencilled on it."Dead small hive beetles and honey larvae in a bee hive.

The old ‘Shut down all backyard beekeepers so control of honey funneled into WEF affiliated corporations’ plan

Who let the bugs in? Was it on purpose?

Why don’t we start by properly punishing the likes we see in the Border Security shows, constantly flaunting our biosecurity rules? The situation is a laughing stock.

go go personal responsibility!

Native bees, this is your chance!

As long as I can still buy honey.
