I'm wondering if varroa mites are easily detached when found on/with
dead bees and if they will have stayed with their host to the end in
a dead overwintered hive.
 
Specifically, I am wondering if an alcohol wash of a sample of bees
in a dead wintered hive will yield useful data???
 
Regards
 
Allen
