from Myrl Stone: "My only conclusion is that the industry must do a better job in educating the bee keeping population." 
  
followed by Bob Darrell: "Talking to local beeks and posting to Bee-L has taught me that treating for varroa is far more important to many than taking the trouble to monitor for varroa and then act or not based on the results." 
========== 
  
Entering into my fourth year of beekeeping, I treat empirically now as well. Amitraz in the spring (prior to supering), Hopguard II in the fall once broodless. 
  
Drift happens. 
  
And we beekeepers need to educate ourselves, btw. The onus is on us.
