Hello All

Maybe this is a crazy notion, but here goes anyway!.

Suppose a Queen Breeder in a varroa infested area wishes to send queens to a
(presumed) non infested area, can the queen and the accompanying workers be
examined with magnification prior to dispatch to ensure that these bees at
least do not have the varroa mites?. If it is a proposition, then obviously
the time taken to do this would have to be taken into account in determining
the price.

As I said, maybe it is a crazy idea - what do the members of the list think?.

Sincerely
