>>> shaker that not only dislodges the mites, but also separates them away from
the bees.
Wouldn't the separation come after the shaking has concluded? I was thinking of shaking diligently, allowing the liquid and the mites to sift through a #5 screen into a bottom jar, and then possibly an additional rinse to wash mites that stuck to the bees into the bottom jar. Then agitate the bottom jar and pour through a paper (coffee) filter.
