I would love to see more data on that assumption. My "trial" this spring
showed zero ferals in my area where there had been beekeepers for may years.
But that is just one data point added to the two others above, actually one
since AHB areas do not count.

The obvious conclusion from "the feral population is growing" is we have a
resistant bees so our problems are over.
