​Project Apis m. and Washington State University have been working together to provide beekeepers with an online practical guide to indoor storage of honey bee colonies.  This in-depth resource continues to grow with new information and chapters.  A newly released chapter addresses a common question for many beekeepers – “How can I find out more about CDFA Pre-inspections?”
 
One of the difficulties that beekeepers face when transporting bees to California is long lines and sometimes hours of waiting at the border inspection stations.  In 2018, the California Department of Agriculture premiered a new program, allowing pre-inspections for beekeepers in some states.  This allows truck drivers to spend less time at the borders, reducing the risk of overheating or flying bees. 
Currently, Pre-inspections are only available in a few states and there are many questions about who can qualify and how to sign up.  The new chapter in our online guide explains why the pre-inspection program is important, what to expect, and provides information and resources to help interested beekeepers participate.
 
Sections of the new chapter include:

    Kelly joined the Hopkins lab as a postdoctoral researcher in the summer of 2020. She completed her doctorate studying honey bee health and management practices in the vanEngelsdorp Bee lab at University of Maryland. Her doctoral work focused on identifying beekeeping management practices to improve colony health and survival. She also addressed obstacles to best management, including Varroa treatment effectiveness and transmission of mites between apiaries. She is excited to keep working on commercial beekeeping management practices and addressing stakeholder needs at WSU.
