MAQs always have a load of both dead bees and pupa.


I think we should be very careful when we use that as a measuring stick.   Myself I don't see a cupful of dead larva as a problem.  2 reasons,  first I suspect they were Varro damaged,  and even if not a few dead larva tell me I got into the capping.
A good frame of brood contains 3000 new bees,  a couple hundred dead is not a big deal.
