Seeking tips on how to isolate P. larvae phages

Heather Hendrickson Auckland, New Zealand

Phage Friends! We need help! We have processed over 300 soil samples looking for phages on Paenibacillus larvae... (the bee pathogen) here in NZ. Have you ever looked SO HARD for a phage and not found one? Suggestions? Ideas? Sympathy? PLEASE? (Bonus: check out all the tips the phage community has already shared via Twitter!)
