Australia’s varroa mite focus group shifts from ‘eradication’ to ‘management’ program
Australia had been the last continent to remain free of varroa mite, which can weaken bees or cause death from viral infection, until they were detected in sentinel hives at the Port of Newcastle in NSW last year. This led to a year of “tireless” eradication efforts. However, Australia will cease attempts to eradicate a deadly bee parasite.
