Bee Health

Bee Diseases Convener

The Convener plays a vital role in coordinating and advising on an appropriate response and treatment in the event of disease outbreaks, and has a particularly important part to play as Varroa is now established in Scotland. If disease is suspected or discovered in members' colonies, the convener can help advise on the appropriate course of action and put beekeepers in touch with the relevant officers from SGRPID (the Scottish Government Inspectorate).

Beekeepers will also find detailed information and downloads about bee diseases in the beekeeping section of the Central Science Laboratory (CSL). Please use the link on the right - note that this link will take you OUT of the SBA Web Site.

The Quick Links at the top right of this page will guide you to a selection of download documents and other web sites that you may find helpful in relation to bee health.

Please direct all enquiries regarding bee health and disease to the Diseases Convener. You will find contact details for the Diseases Convener on the Executive page in the 'About' section of the main menu.
