Asian Honeybee (Apis cerana) (QLD Only)The Federal Government has announced that Queensland is experiencing an Asian Honeybee (Apis cerana) endemic. Previously it was a requirement that government agents were engaged to destroy the Asian Honeybee hives and the bees, however this will no longer be the case. Members of the public who wish to have the bees removed or destroyed are advised to contact an AEPMA accredited pest controller.
