When I joined this group, which must be getting on for a decade ago,
almost every alternate post was about the ravages of the tracheal mite,
Acarapis Woodii. Nowadays that mite is very rarely mentioned. Why?
Has it been seen off by the chemicals used against Varroa in the same
way as (over here in the UK at least) Braula coeca, which is probably
now extinct locally?
