New Bee
Let me start by saying this is my first year, and first hive. I've had a great, mostly uneventful year with my hive. My girls have have been happy, healthy and gave me a bunch of honey.
I did a late season inspection and found what looked like dried up withered wings on several of the bees. I did a verroa check earlier in the year and found nothing, as a result I didn't treat for verroa with this being a 1st year hive.
I think what I'm dealing with is Deformed Wing Virus...I can treat for the mites and I'm going to when I get home from work tonight, but is it too late for my hive?
