Hi all
 
Recently while looking through some hives my brother Rob and I have noticed the
occasional recently emerged bee with "chewed up" looking wings.   I remember
reading somewhere that this may be due to varroa mites while the bees were
still in the cell.  Has anyone noticed this in their hives?  Is it some other
pathogen?
 
Thanks,
