I am STRONGLY supportive of any bee breeder who is truly maintaining a
program for selection of mite resistant stock.
As far as treatment free commercial beekeepers, if they have a large
proportion of colonies dying from mites each season, then they are a plague
to surrounding beekeepers. This is a hot topic among commercial guys.
