Plus 20 year's experience from beekeepers in Europe. Varroa Bomb has been in use for a decade there. I've been talking about it for almost that long. It's real. Wake up.

IMHO, as well as that of Marla Spivak, Dennis vanEngelsdorp, and most other major varroa researchers, the "mite bomb" concept is well substantiated by experimental evidence, as well as practical experience.



I posted in September results of 200+ alcohol washes taken over a few days in my own operation.  The data clearly show how a small percentage of colonies can have major impact upon the varroa levels of the rest of the operation.
