>We are now all hoping for a method of inoculating our colonies with Type B.
We really need to know how widespread Type B is, both in this country and around the world - and whether its presence is always linked to apparent 'resistance'. I would have thought that to be a really worthwhile research project.
In the meantime I am left wondering whether I have any Type B here. My varroa treatment is minimal and it is extremely rare to see any bees with deformed wings. Perhaps I do not need to treat at all.
Best wishes
