> I'm seeing a substantial mite fall on all my bottom boards.

Hi Kent,

In Qc, just harvested supers last week, a bit earlier than usual for me.
Also counted heavier mite fall than last year (from 3/day to more than
25/day on week long sampling). Enough to generate a flash formic
treatment too on those hives asap. All Russian queens, at leastr I hope
since they tend to re-queening within the season whatever I do.
