An example from southern Chile
2900 colonies treated end of november, all alive when treated past week
after Ulmo harvest
100 colonies not treated end of november, 50% dead by past week (those
colonies weren't cured because they were used for the queen rearing) They
were moved to the mountains for the Ulmo flow.
