[QUOTE="Wknz, post: 3165, member: 175"] Two hives: 1 of them tested 3 varroa out of 288 bees so 1.04%. Hive looks very healthy with good solid brood, nice temperament. Other tested 7 varroa out of 150 bees tested. 4.6% Unhealthy hive. Agressive bees. What is considered acceptable, and when is a hive considered to have a high varroa load? 0% would be nice of course :) [/QUOTE]
