As part of my IPM I have retained a single std national brood frame in with my 14x12s to allow sacraficial drone brood comb to be created and removed.
I've just taken my first comb section out from 3 of 4 hives (one is rather behind the others). Inspected before disposal, good news, little to no varroa on the larvae. Of course the 4th may be a diff story!
I am interested to know what loadings others are experiencing.
