>>>  And years of experience increases odds of hives surviving, right?  Well, no...highest losses were for those past 25 yrs (45%), lowest were for those with only 0-5 yrs (41%).      .       .      .       <><><>  Being one with "assumed" years of experience I must say that some of us with experience sometimes stick with the way it used to bee done no matter what until we are literally hit over the head with a sledge hammer.  Personally, after years of beeing successful with managing without treatments I have had to move to a treatment mode of management after beeing hit hard two years in succession.  Sometimes it takes a lot to get us old geezers to change our ways.
