Bob Harrison has related several horror stories of mass killings of
hives by varroa. We don't yet have varroa in the South Island of New
Zealand - well not that we know, but its advent is thought to be
inevitable, and we are of course very apprehensive of the damage it may
well do.

Bob, if I recall at all correctly, you acquired some SMR queens over a
year ago. Can you give us your opinion of them please.

Thanks very much.
