Beekeeping Short and Sweet, a beekeeping podcast for the inquisitive beekeeper, a beekeeper, in fact, just like me!This week I take a look at my Summer Varroa Treatments and discuss a worrying infection in one of my colonies, Chronic Bee Paralysis Virus.Through most of the Summer I use a mechanical method of removing varroa mites but when I split colonies I switch to a treatment. In today's podcast, I talk about how I use this.Chronic Bee Paralysis Virus has taken hold of one of my colonies and I'm not sure there's much I can do with it except wait and see!I have carried out a bit of research in the last month reading quite a few scientific articles about the problem but there doesn't seem to be much practical help out there for beekeepers.The website I used for the Varroa Calculation is the National Bee Units website http://www.nationalbeeunit.com/The scientific papers I have read can be found using Google Scholar and searching Chronic Bee Paralysis Virus.The primary source of my reading is a book called Honeybee Pests, Predators and Diseases edited by Morse and Flottum.
