Hi Bob Harrison et al:

You asked if anyone in North America had seen a pseudo-scorpion in
their hives. I MAY have seen one last fall. I check for mites with a
sticky board (natural drop) and on one of them there was a small
animal, roughly the same size as a varroa mite which looked much like
a tiny scorpion. Unfortunately at the time it did not seem significant
and I did not preserve it. I still do not have varroa mites, which is
probably also not significant.

Best regards,
