The problem is compounded later in the season, as it appears to me (a friendly suggestion to Charlie--I clearly state when I'm making a guess; I have no hard data as of yet to support this hypothesis) that bees tend to drift out of sickening colonies into nearby healthy hives.




That math works.....  It’s the guys who claim that suddenly the mites doubled or tripled because of the neighbors hives that’s not working.......

WAY to many people blaming others for their mite problems..... Unfortunately being touted as the new cause of all beekeeping woes.  You can't got to a meeting without hearing the term "neighbors Mite bomb".....
