Hi Dee,

I don’t understand why PB upholds the study as not supportive of small 
cell, for the information actually supports small cell.  If you look at 
info from the study on the link below, it clearly shows less reproducing 
mites in smaller sized cells along with more non reproducing mites in 
small cells when compared to the larger sizes.  This would over time have 
a significant impact on the mite population
