Something small and furry on varroa mesh floor

[dickbowyer]

Been doing varroa mite count on my 4 hives - one mite between them all but have found a couple had what looks like a tiny caterpillar (2-3mm long), green, slightly hairy and definitely not white like a wax moth larvae - any thoughts what they might be? Sorry but too small to photograph - can only just make out features with magnifying glass.

The time of year must reduce the number of possibles on this one. To make sure it isn't something nasty check out the small hive beetle larva here: https://secure.fera.defra.gov.uk/beebase/index.cfm?pageid=125

Other than that I'm stumped.
