Boyd,
I hope to bee able to tell you my 3 hives survived, however, I have my doubts about one of them. As soon as the weather warms up a little, I will go and check the hives and report what I find. Thanks for reading my blog.

Thank you for your kind words. I will be back after Jan. 1. Maybe by then my wife and mother-in-law will be here and things will settle down so I can get back to business. Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Thank you for your comment. Do you cook with honey? Do you have any recipes using honey? You can research the benefits of eating honey.

Comment on The Varroa Mite by ekpeach

Lori,

It was not a varroa mite. They only get on honey bees. If you could see it clearly, then it was something else. The mite is just a hair larger than a flee, and is red to rusty brown in color. They are hard to see with the necked eye, especially for someone who has never seen one before. Hope this helps some.

I was outside in my yard all afternoon and I had a thing that landed in my wrist. I tried to flick it away and it didn’t budge so I killed it with my garden glove. Unfortunately when I came in the house (about 20 minutes later) to prepare supper I got violently ill and threw up until there was nothing left to throw up.
So I am wondering if it could possibly be a varroa mite that made me so sick so suddenly? I am deathly allergic to bees and hornets and have an epipen and I must go directly to hospital when a bee or hornet land on me.

I’m quite interested in the answer.
Thanks.
