>I repeated alcohol wash 1 week after last vaporization. Mite counts either stayed the same or went up. Another question is the time of year. I recall that my varroa levels went up quite a bit after an oxalic drizzle in 2004, but it is assumed to have been due to the final hatch of brood taking place after the treatment. The treatment was on October 6, 2004 The original counts are tabulated at http://www.honeybeeworld.com/diary/2004/diary100104.htm The later results are tabulated at http://www.honeybeeworld.com/diary/2004/diary102004.htm *********************************************** The BEE-L mailing list is powered by L-Soft's renowned LISTSERV(R) list management software.
