​My bees did not look good when I did my final OAV treatment and wrapped
for the fall.  I would attribute that to heavy swarming during the season
from which many did not recover coupled with poor mite control; too busy
chasing swarms.  I would guess my pre-winter losses were around 40% and
suspect by winter's end the will be closer to 70%.
