Book excerpt: Excerpt from Gleanings in Bee Culture, Vol. 15: Devoted to Bees Honey and Home Interests; January 1, 1887 The most fatal misapprehension has been in re gard to the smell of the disease. In its first stages there is no perceptible smell, and it is not until the disease has made considerable progress that any unusual smell would be noticed by most persons. In the last stages, when sometimes half or more of the cells in a hive are filled with rotten brood, the odor becomes sufficiently pronounced, but the nose is not to be relied on to decide whether a col ony has foul brood or not. Long before it can be detected by the sense of smell, the colony is in a condition to communicate the disease to others. The eye alone can be depended on, and it must be a sharp and trained eye too, if any headway is to be made in curing the disease.
