The Division offers a voluntary Apiary Registration Program and inspections of hives.
The Division will assist the beekeeper with developing appropriate controls to prevent the infection of other hives if a parasite or disease is detected. Additionally, the Division will inspect honeybees and/or apiary equipment that are being moved to another state to certify their apparent freedom from infectious diseases, parasites and/or pests. There is no filing fee for Apiary registration, but the inspection fee is $5. To request an inspection, please contact the Division.
Please note that if a beekeeper is applying pesticides in or around the hive to control pests, parasites, or diseases, the beekeeper is required to obtain an annual permit from the Division of Pesticide Control.
