Lloyd,

>>Initially, I saw it in a yard I was using to trap pollen.

A bit on a tangent - how often do you remove the pollen from your 
traps?  Is every other day frequent enough to prevent pollen 
deterioration in the summer heat & humidity?

>>Here in Eastern NY I'd say that SHB are more or less as common as 
wax moths...and are more or less the same problem.

Yikes!  I have not seen SHB in my hives (or ferals) on Long Island 
(downstate NY) but they are bound to show up with packages sooner or 
later...
