The cases
| Case | Best answer |
|---|---|
| A strong-looking colony has no recent mite count. What comes first? | Collect a representative adult-bee sample |
| Lavender is blooming heavily. What best supports colony nutrition? | Diverse, season-long pollen and nectar |
| A super is capped, but brood-nest stores are below the winter target. | Leave the colony reserve and delay extraction |
| You see signs resembling American foulbrood. | Quarantine and seek diagnostic/regulatory guidance |
