Why are you purchasing packages? If you can't keep your bees through
the winter for reasons of climate, there's no point in treating against
Varroa at all. If you can keep your bees alive through the winter, why
not propagate from them? If you have enough colonies you can enlist
the assistance of Darwin in selecting for survivability.
