Mr Monson who organises the hives likens the situation to colony collapse disorder.
This amalgamation of 120000 hives from 4 states risks the whole honey industry.
Scientist Rob Manning said Australia could get bee disease within two years if we put a temporary ban on moving hives around en masse. We have to get on top of disease. We need wisdom not greed. Short term pain for long term prosperity. Commercial beekeepers deserve Government financial assistance . Healthy bees are necessary for Australias food security.
Commercial beekeepers from Queensland want to know why fruit checked at the borders and not bees ?
Beekeepers are also warned to keep imported honey away from there bees it also can carry disease.
