Attention Beekeepers: Varroa mite has arrived

Last week, the Queensland Beekeepers Association convened its annual conference in Bundaberg, where beekeepers confronted the significant challenge of Varroa Mites. The Masters, a local beekeeping family, shared their experiences with the mites in an interview with the Clifton Courier. Cameron Masters routinely inspects his family’s hives and discovered one mite on a treated hive during a recent check.
