>First, based on the number of colonies that went into the winter and those
that came out: 20.5% winter kill.

>But, based on the individual beekeepers: 28% winter kill average.


I lost one last fall, but of those going into winter (3 10-frame and one
weak 5-frame nuc) all have survived and are roaring strong.

I have not treated for mites or beetles in several years.  I see no mites,
but more beetles that I like.
