Although some beekeepers here 
maintain that the beetles are knocking over 'good' hives, I and some 
mates believe it is only hives that have a problem that succumb.

Geoff,  where are you from???    I am also thinking that weather/soil types
are playing a factor.  The beetles success in pupating being a portion of
that.  Hence the wisdom of full sun.  I think moist damp shaded areas can
allow more larva to successfully pupate.
