Dormant doesn't mean dead.

Since the fungus is dormant above 75 degrees, then many Texas bat

to visit. Right ?
If someone enters the shaft at Honeycreek and exits at the small wet
entrance, how could
they possibly transmit WNS to any bats roosting in the dry entrance ?
Any WNS on them
would have been washed off.
If a Texas bat had the fungus but left the cave to eat ( where the
temperature is 100 degrees )
that would kill the fungus. Right ?
Did anybody see the news-story about American crops being destroyed
by WNS ?
I think it was a tabloid story in Israel.
Have any new cases of WNS been found in the past month ?
I bet if you leave your caving gear out in the 100 degree sun for
about an hour, that will
be all the decon you will need.
