A snip from Steve Sweet
>The question becomes: Given a steady dose of oxalic acid vapors, how long should one expect before an oxalic acid-immune population of Varroa is developed?

I was hoping that someone would present some science that addresses this idea of immune population development.  I have heard some say "it is very unlikely that Varroa would develop an immunity to a good blow from a hammer".  Is it that some miticides are more like the hammer and others less so?
