thanks George, I did not treat since I saw no mites in the fall and in fact
hives I treated in the fall as a small experiement also died, I did not treat
for nosema however, and their is much goldenrod in this area, and yes many were
weaker colonies; and plastic, plus wooden boxes I have read are non issues,
thanks for reinforcing that, I tested one year and wrapped 50 percent but it
made no difference, my suspicions are nosema, weak colonies to begin with and
goldenrod. Regards, Rick
