Peter:
- are they not known to be more resistant to varroa?

Reply:
having people there I have corresponded with over the years
I would say that they are only more resistant to varroa
until placed into a modern upsized management system, which
then starts the process for maladies and constant watching.
You see there is difference between the wild natural and
then man kept artificial system.
