varroa mite

Did a quick varroa mite count the other day, and one of the mites caught my eye, any idea what caused the mite to a bit missing?

Could be anything foraging around on the tray.

Are you sure that is Varroa ? , it looks more like a baby Oyster.

Yep that's a varroa mite with a little bit of sugar on top of it
