Reason I asked this question was that recently got a
picture of perhaps deer ticks or other???, being found on
bodies of honeybees in cold climate. This then got to
thinking about other beneficial mites, already in beehives,
and wondering if they moved or congregated in cold months,
and if so where? could they go to the bodies of our
honeybees, like the similar deer tick sample found, and
known to be there even in samples in Europe, from inquiry
received back? I could find no published references to same
in books I looked thru. But honeybees and mites on bottom
boards do meet physically, so others in beehives
feeding/co-existing would too.
Does anyone know where to find information relative to
this?
