The Pollinator Partnership is hosting a national effort to collect data in North American over the one week period beginning September 9, 2017. The info collected will be posted on www.mitecheck.com. (http://www.mitecheck.com.)
This sounds like a worthwhile effort with no cost to the beekeeper. As good beekeepers, we were all going to do mite checks anyway. Right? This means taking a few minutes to report your findings.
I'm going to participate. How about you?
