PBKA Auction – Saturday 28th April: important note to those selling bees!
For those wishing to sell bees at the auction. You must contact the Seasonal Bee Inspector to have your bees inspected at your home apiary, prior to bringing them to the auction site!
This is to avoid the transmission of any notifiable diseases into the sales area.

Mobile: 07979 119 373
Or by e mail at: margaret.gill@apha.gsi.gov.uk
NB. No bees will be accepted for sale that have not been previously inspected.
