Here is an article on a new varroa control method. I haven't ever heard or seen of this prior to today. I did a little internet searching and it may just not be for sale in the US yet; hence our ignorance of this idea. It is similar to a mouse guard with round holes. Bees entering and exiting the hive must pass through the holes which are coated with a miticide. Follow link for a description.
