  • Diagnosis of varroa mite (Varroa destructor) and sustainable control in honey bee (Apis mellifera) colonies [Elektronski vir] : a review
    Gregorc, Aleš ; Sampson, Blair
    Determining varroa mite infestation levels in honey bee colonies and the proper method and time to perform a diagnosis are important for efficient mite control. Performing a powdered sugar shake or ... counting mites that drop from combs and bees onto a hive bottom board are two reliable methods for sampling varroa mite to evaluate the efficacy of an acaricide treatment. This overview summarizes studies that examine the efficacy of organic acids and essential oils, mite monitoring, and brood interruption for integrated varroa mite control in organic beekeeping.
