I've asked the students in the Beekeeping occupation to write a quick blog entry about their beek experience this session. Here is what Sebastian Wignall has to say about varroa:
Varroa mite
Varroa mites are very bad for our honey bees because they go on the bees and eat their wings so they can’t fly. which means they can’t go out to get pollen. that’s called curly wing. A way to prevent curly wing is to put a plastic tray in your hive on the bottom and spray it with pam, the one you cook with, than you powder sugar your bees and the other bees will clean each other while they are doing that the bees will knock of the varroa mites down on the screen.These are some varroa on our bees at College Ave.
It's just creepy.

Deformed Wing Virus or Curly Wing Syndrome is an indicator that a colony has a pretty high might load or the bees have a low resistance to the mites. Varroa are the vector for disease.

Pierre Lebon Elanga and the emaciated CRTV viewers were not trusted with the ability to handle the truth. What truth? According to our inside sources, influential Biya zealots feared that a loss and disqualifier on national television would not only cause disenchantment of fans but ignite a popular uprising against their dictator in the 2011 presidential election.
