This is what the landing board of a strong hive looks like in July. These bees were split in mid June by the Taranov method and are now undergoing treatment for mites. Were using a treatment certified organic in New Zealand as there is not certification for organic aracnoides in bees anyplace else in the world but this may be our last chemical treatment of any type as we're moving to a heat based treatment. Mites die at 104 degrees and bees and larvae at 126. Anyhow these bees look very strong, the aroma of honey is in the air. They're flying purposefully and are docile. Their daughter colony is doing wonderfully in Florence. It's all you could ask of a hive.
