    Default Chalk brood: is there a lot of it about this year?

    I am seeing a lot of chalk brood about this spring; some quite heavy infections. What are others finding? I had a look back over Eric's articles in the Scottish Beekeeper and how he managed it by sugar feeding. Is this enough or should I use a shook swarm method to try and get rid of it from the apiary? Anyone else have any ideas?
