Hello Tom and All,

> (FGMO) Can't be bad!

FGMO has it's good points but the best cure for varroa and tracheal mites is
breeding a varroa and TM tolerant bee.

No mineral oil to apply and feral colonies will start to come back.

Ever thought of importing one of the USDA strains which are showing
tolerance  in the U.S.?

Sincerely,
Bob Harrison
