>This view is also balanced with the advice that Australian honeybee
populations are not in decline, despite the
increased use of this group of insecticides in agriculture and horticulture

I wonder whether it is valid for those of us with varroa and its associated
problems, together with a completely different climate, to make any
comparisons with the Australian experience.
