Hello
I was talking with a fellow beekeeper today about stress that is
brought about in the moving the bees.I did get some answers before , that
stress causes an additive affect to bees that have Varroa.What I would
like to know is , do other beekeepers have any more problems now when
they move there bees. This year was the first time in 25 + years that I
had any problem with the bees that I moved. I should have treated for
Varroa while I was still up in the mountains in early september.
I do feel stress is playing a role with Varroa to knock a hive down fast.
Thank You
