REGARDING           RE>White looking larvae
 
Are you sure that they are larvae, and not pupae?  I noticed that very
immature drone pupae (as well as some later ones) are being ejected from the
hives this spring.  This has been an unusually cool (maybe even cold!) spring
in southeastern Michigan, and I wonder if this may be responsible for their
throwing out the drone brood.  Until now, I have only observed this reaction
in the fall.  Another possibility just occurred to me - could this be
hygienic behavior, discarding drone brood with varroa mites?  There is
Apistan in the hives, but just maybe....
