AFB near me
From July 2020 NSW DPI will collate a list of NSW postcodes where American foulbrood (AFB) notifications and detections were reported each month. Please see the table below.
Please note that due to privacy considerations NSW DPI cannot discuss individual cases or provide more precise location information. Submissions where location of the hive was not reported cannot be included in this summary.
If you keep bees near a reported postcode it is best practice to inspect your colonies for AFB disease as soon as practical.
It is a condition of registration that all beekeepers in NSW meet their obligations regarding AFB under the Australian Honey Bee Industry Biosecurity Code of Practice. In particular please see sections 4 and 7 of the Code.
