"how bad do things have to get before more of us stop blaming Varroa mites,
and everything else under the sun for our colony losses, and quit making
excuses for our pesticide problems?"  & "Ross Conrad is author of Natural
Beekeeping: Organic Approaches to Modern Apiculture 2nd Edition."

My impression here is that the author appears to have a conflict of
interest.  Therefore, his shrill denial of the impact of Varroa should be
regarded as being of little substance.
