But my untreated ferals hived in standard equipment show DWS in 1-2 years. Not knowing what was meant, I searched BEE-L and found find "DWS" only in three posts, and all from the same writer, with no explanation. I Googled for "DVS and bee" and came up empty. I then made a leap, Googled "DWV and bee" and got tonnes. Is DWS something like DWV, or something different? Does eveybody but me know what is meant? allen Knowledge comes, but wisdom lingers. -- Alfred Lord Tennyson -- Visit www.honeybeeworld.com/bee-l for rules, FAQ and other info ---
