> I've always looked for the youngest age larvae I could find, typically
next to unhatched eggs. To my un-magnified eye, the larvae I target appear
in comparable size to an egg, which is 1.2mm according to David Stone's
Overview of Bee Biology. Although I haven't checked more than one source to
confirm, that size seems about right. Larger is still very possible (48 hr
larvae) though.
