That's why I used 50 hives, which were dropping large numbers of mites. I
doubt that lack of duration was the issue.

An r squared close to zero. The data points were just a random scatter.

So did I. But I have no reason to doubt the actual data. As you can see
from my spreadsheet model, the accuracy of which is supported by your
measurements, there should be a correlation over time.
Allen, I have no investment in one method being "better" than another, and
have no compulsion to defend anything--I'm just trying, as always, to
objectively compare various methods.
