Is there an equivalent "FDA" group that approves ne meds or supplements for bees?
Since anything that is used to treat or feed Honey Bees can eventually find it's way in to our food source as in honey, is there a regulating body that reviews NEW medicines or supplements given to bees commercially or sold at bee supply outfits?
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has a long 7-year protocol for new drugs for testing before human trials can begin.
I was wondering if there is any such thing in the Bee industry?
