§ 909.09.
No person shall sell, offer for sale, give, trade, or otherwise distribute any bees,
honeycombs, or used beekeeping equipment that contains a serious bee disease or pest. Upon request, the state or a deputy apiarist may issue a transfer permit if, upon
inspection, the item is determined to be apparently free from serious bee diseases
and pests. The permit, or a copy of it, may accompany any such transfer of ownership. The director may refuse to issue the permit until it is found by inspection that
any serious bee diseases and pests are controlled or eradicated from the bees, honeycombs,
or used beekeeping equipment. This section does not apply to the transfer of ownership of honeycomb for human consumption.
