As you know, the miticides have not been tested for toxicity to bees at the 
 levels now being seen in wax and comb.  And, high levels may not equal  
hazard.  But, based on WHAT and HOW MUCH is in wax and comb, the major  
pesticides are miticides and fungicides, with neonics in only a small  percentage 
- 10% from the data, maybe 20% if the CA beekeepers are right (and  that for 
all pesticide kills, not just CCD).
 
The delayed effect that you see is more likely a pathogen - and I hope  to 
have proof by next spring.  Jerry
