S.O.S.
 
   I just recieved a call from a concerned beekeeper in Southern Alabama,
who wants to know how he can control for Varroa and tracheal mites. He
doesn't have a problem now, but he would appreciate any information
on mite prevention and control.
I have heard of crisco patties and pesticide strips which
are very effective, but I don't know what kind of mites they
control. Can any of you bee-netters help me out. Thanks!
