    Please could you do a mite wash on U tube and break down the ratio of the treatment. I am not familiar with this acid and this video on U tube was choppy. I am interested to avoid chemicals that weaken the bees.

    I have noticed in Central Texas, the colonies that have had the screened bottom boards with the corrugated plastic completely removed for the heat, have a lower mite load than hives with a solid bottom board. But I also don’t have the experience of many thousands of hives, my data pool is much lower. More like hundreds, not thousands of hives.

    Randy, this hive has been living here without being treated against varroa and without being fed for at least, as far as we know, 29 years. ruclips.net/video/NM_agkweRmA/видео.html. During the whole bee lining, I have not seen a single varroa in the thousands of bees I have marked during a week to find it.

    A young beekeeper on You Tube says that 'you' meaning anyone who has Varroa mite cannot eradicate them only control them which I find an astonishing statement because after three years I do not find any mites now as of spring 2024. I followed your methods and dangled the adsorbent stips 1 to 1 ox acid and food grade glycerine between 4 frames per hive for months. This did not seem to bother the bees one iota. All the three hives were busting at the seems and one swarmed. I caught that swarm and gave it a new Buckfast queen. This hive is now thriving after 10 days. The young lady might be doing something wrong because she is still persisting with vaporisation with O A.... I found that the fumigation with OA was not efficient due to killing hundreds of mites in one particular hive with the ER method = strips...... Why I wonder is there lame excuses publicised with the method that works even with supers on? best wishes to you in your excellent research regarding the so called illegal strips. I found they got me free of the worry of all the bloody lot of bees dying. As I said they are thriving .

    Randy Oliver is definitely a rockstar of the beekeeping world. I just don't like the lags in the audio. I feel like I'm missing some key PC's of information. Another question I have is why don't we test drones for mites at all times, or at least whenever they are available? Or maybe we should be taking any number we get from a regular wash and multiply it by 7 since they are on the drones more frequently by 7x

  • @garyallen4486
    @garyallen4486 Год назад

    Mite immigration happens on the flowers being shared by other species of bees. Research Results from the United Kingdom and Germany indicate the varroa mite transmission being directly from the flower or bees sharing a flower and making physical contact.

    Honey bees also "milk" aphids, that's where honey dew honey comes from, it should be harvested pretty quickly because it crystalizes and is difficult or impossible to extract once it's crystalized.

    Dear Oliver, all your lectures and scientific approach in beekeeping is unique, especially in the way you try to understand beekeeping through the biology of bees. For the second year, I have been successfully using oxalic glycerin strips to control varroa. The EMA's delay in registering this ecological medicine is incomprehensible. Good luck with your further research.
