> Anyone know about scientifics trials or related stdudies on varroa thermal treatment...or Roman Linhart work? Saw a presentation recently by Dr. Yves Conte, in which he touched on this briefly. From my notes: Dr. Yves Conte - Varroa, Viruses, and their interactions: - Working off of human "Fever" theory, tried to kill viruses by introducing an artificial "fever" in a hive by heating for 14 days to 40C. Killed some viruses, but also killed bees. Did not consider this investigation promising. ( It seems to me there was a kickstarter on a related product recently) Dr. Yves Le Conte is Head of Bee Research, Abeilles et Environnement, Research Director at the I.N.R.A. (Institut National de la Recherche Agronomique), Avignon, France *********************************************** The BEE-L mailing list is powered by L-Soft's renowned LISTSERV(R) list management software.
