Went to a talk by an RBI today.
He asked if anyone had heard the lady from the USA saying she had research indicating that acetic acid does not kill ceranae spores.
Any other info. on this?

Hi Black Comb
I read this so might be wrong but UV light and acetic have two actions
First one is triggering the nosema to release its coiled weapon
Second to inactivate the spore so it won't be dangerous to bees who clean up

Those second type are not killed just deactivated like an unexploded bomb without the timer
Hope I'm not adding to the pile of bull you read on the net by repeating this
