If the beekeeper is desperate, because his bees have a heavy mite load,
moving them north, and waiting until the colonies are broodless wouldn't
work. That's exactly what happens up north...and the colonies crash before
they can be treated with oxalic. They need to be treated with something
before they have high mite loads...perhaps ApiLife, or flash formic.
