Re: [KEEPINGBEES] Deformed Bees

Hi Randy,

WHAT YOU ARE MOST LIKLY SEEING IS DAMAGE FROM A VIRUS THAT IS VECTORED BY
THE VARROA MITE.

YOU CAN HELP THE HIVE TO OVER COME IT BY FEEDING A ANTIBIOTIC AND TREAT FOR
THE MITES IF YOU HAVE THEM . YOU CAN HAVE THE VIRUS WITH VERY LOW MITE
POPULATION.IN THAT CASE YOU ARE BETTER NOTE TO TREAT BUT LIKE US BEES NEED TO
BE
HEALTHY TO FIGHT OFF A VIRUS....


THANKS
DAVID
