Could it be that we are dealing with a more virulent mite that can exist in a chemically treated hive in a yard of many hives vs a less virulent mite that might exist in a "natural" hive?

Didn't Seeley find that the bee that survived in the relative isolation of the Arnot Forrest(with mites) would not survive in a bee yard with other hives?

No thanks Peter.

15 posts in and it's just another p***ing match about cell size.

Maybe the focus changes by post 153 or maybe not.

It's been a long day and I'm beat

I was thinking natural/untreated not natural/popsicle stick.
