I talked to John Mynard this AM who was inspector when the disappearing
disease hit Alabama.
This was in 1990 and at the same time of the tracheal mite infestation.
I had quite a few hives that were just empty of bees.
I had about 50 total and at least 6-8 and, to the best of my memory were
just void of bees.
Tracheal mites may have been the reason for disappearing, I do not know.
I just remember it was bad.
