The Mite-A-Thon is a North American effort to collect Varroa mite
infestation data in honey bee colonies. All beekeepers can easily
participate by testing their hives for mites, creating a rich
distribution of sampling sites in Canada, the United States, and Mexico.
This initiative has provided a platform for beekeepers’ associations to
engage newer members and re-familiarize long-time members with proper
Varroa monitoring techniques. It has also opened the conversation on
treatment practices, initiating a dialogue between beekeepers.
Visit www.mitecheck.com to submit mite data.
