Thanks for sharing this, Randy is great, I wish the sound would had been better. we missed out on a lot when the sound went out.

Thank you for this video. Appreciate it.

Great presentation 🎉

Randy Oliver is definitely a rockstar of the beekeeping world. I just don't like the lags in the audio. I feel like I'm missing some key PC's of information. Another question I have is why don't we test drones for mites at all times, or at least whenever they are available? Or maybe we should be taking any number we get from a regular wash and multiply it by 7 since they are on the drones more frequently by 7x

Whats the ratio of Dawn to Water when diluting the detergent wash? Metric & Imperial measurements please :)

Freaking awesome video

A young beekeeper on You Tube says that 'you' meaning anyone who has Varroa mite cannot eradicate them only control them which I find an astonishing statement because after three years I do not find any mites now as of spring 2024. I followed your methods and dangled the adsorbent stips 1 to 1 ox acid and food grade glycerine between 4 frames per hive for months. This did not seem to bother the bees one iota. All the three hives were busting at the seems and one swarmed. I caught that swarm and gave it a new Buckfast queen. This hive is now thriving after 10 days. The young lady might be doing something wrong because she is still persisting with vaporisation with O A.... I found that the fumigation with OA was not efficient due to killing hundreds of mites in one particular hive with the ER method = strips...... Why I wonder is there lame excuses publicised with the method that works even with supers on? best wishes to you in your excellent research regarding the so called illegal strips. I found they got me free of the worry of all the bloody lot of bees dying. As I said they are thriving .

Hi everyone. What would be European analogue to Dawn detergent? We don't have it here in Europe 😔.

45:41 what ration of the Dawn Ultra detergent to the water is used for mite count test? Is it same as "Dawn Ultra Dishwashing Liquid, Dish Soap"?

That poor bee... Damn I hate the mites.

Hey randy, I'm a small commercial queen breeder, I've experimented with try to breed vsh bees from a company in texas. No luck in reproducing bees that effectively handle mites. Do you know where I can find starter colonies or queens to start with.

Same thing over and over.
