[QUOTE="milkandhoney, post: 3789, member: 45"] Hi NZDan, You send a sample to a laboratory (Hills Labs for example). They will give you instructions how to do it. Pay a fee and they will let you know the result. I remember being really surprised the first time I sent a sample, I had taken the honey off early, done everything right and was still shocked to find Tutin in our honey, albeit at a very low level. Since then the acceptable level has been lowered even further and we will always have to be very careful with the honey we use for ourselves and give away. [/QUOTE]
