> To do what we can on the drone topic, we have asked all local beekeepers and club members to stop using drone sacrifice as an IPM method (heck, it just selects for Varroa that preferentially infest worker brood anyway...is a huge drain on colony resources and depopulates the local DCA's)
Since someone else called attention to this, I would submit that none of this makes any sense at all. It's assumptions layered upon assumptions, based on thin air.
