In my limited circle of beekeepers I see those who know what they are doing
and how to control Varroa with winter losses less than 15%. They are not
hobby beekeepers.Most hobby beekeepers are 50% or greater.

These are numbers that correspond to Medhat"s Alberta beekeepers. It is all
in controlling Varroa.

There are exceptions, but they certainly do not prove the rule.
