>>> It doesn't take much of a temperature excursion in shipped queens to degrade the sperm viability. <><><> Has a study been conducted as to the quality of packaging materials in maintaining a fairly constant, viable temperature of package contents during the shipping process?

I haven’t seen one on materials, but this year I have researched that with packages! Some queen producers are a bit concerned with temps , but it seem in the big picture to not be in the top concerns from them. Overall they seem happy with the current system.
