This contradiction, though statistically small in scale, will at least show if mite resistance trait is inherited (nature) or learned (nurture) in bees. I am very apprehensive, indeed. The new queens are Carnis and they will be dropped in the sea of Italians around here. The mutt between them tends to be feisty, so I wonder being feisty has anything to do with fending off SHB as I learned to love AHB's heightened defensiveness against SHB's.
On a different note, I find placing a quickly consumable size of pollen patty atop washer cloth (fuzzy side up) in the middle--so that the SHB's should walk toward the patty locate above at the center of the cloth seems to be most effective way to trap their hooks on their legs.
