Several cases of the American foul brood in Berlin districts
<
p class = "Article_Paragraph_lxykj Paywall"> This year there were already cases of American foul brut in several Berlin districts. As the district office of Neukölln announced in June, the disease is a highly contagious bee disease. However, the disease is not a danger for other animal species or humans. The consumption of honey is also not dangerous.
In the disease, bee larvae are infected about spores of a bacterium and dying. The pathogen can survive in the ground or in old beehouses for years, so that infection can continue to occur.
The American faulbrut, a high-containing illness in honeybees, was once again discovered in Berlin-Mitte. In order to prevent spreading, a blocking area has been set up, which applies to all owners of honeybees. The restricted area comprises one kilometer around the disk operation concerned. According to the district office Mitte, the following areas are affected: in the north the district border on Provincial Straße/Kühnemannstraße, in the east the district border on Nordbahnstraße/Steegerstraße, in the south from Osloer Straße 76 to the district border on Bornholmer Straße and in the west the district border on Reinickendorfer Strasse/Reginhardtstraße/Ritterlandstraße. All previously not yet registered owners of bee colonies and stands within the blocking district are asked to report their stocks at the Middle Ordinance Office, Veterinary and Food Supervision.
The American fauline brood has already been discovered in various Berlin districts this year. The disease is highly contagious for honeybees, but is not a danger to other animal species or humans. The consumption of honey is also not dangerous. The disease occurs when bee larvae infect and die by sporing a bacterium. The pathogen can survive in the ground or in old beehouses for years, which can lead to further contagious. Source: According to a report by www.berliner-zeitung.de .
