In their 40 page treatise on SHB, Peter NEUMANN, Jeff S. PETTIS, Marc O. SCHÄFER state:

> The impact of the apiary location in the shade or in the sun is unclear. 

> While Arbogast et al. (2007, 2009a) found more SHBs in lured traps outside hives in the shade, Ellis and Delaplane (2006) found that the location in a shaded area or in an open field with full sun had no significant effect on the number of SHB entering the colonies. In Australia, large beekeeping operations around Sydney moved their operations over the Blue Mountains where conditions are cooler and less humid, which has proven the most effective SHB management strategy.

> However, our knowledge of biology, diagnosis, control and prevention of this pest is still limited, creating demand for more research on SHBs.
