Voracious Varroa

Varroa destructor is responsible for significant, worldwide honey bee colony losses. To improve colony health and survivorship, we need to understand the biology and life cycle of the varroa mite. This informs predictions of population dynamics and Varroa population growth through the season, and builds the case for good monitoring techniques and beekeeping practices. During this presentation we will also explore the management strategies and treatment options available in different regional and seasonal contexts.

Another excellent, helpful, and timely presentation. Thank you.

Thanks for the demo! Next time you should try the BeeScaning app and find the mites with your camera and AI! Works great!

Question: Does the mites have any natural predators where they originally came from?

Have you tried the (Bayer product) varroa gate?
