title: [Varroatosis. A zootechnical system of control].
abstract: A managerial method is described by which the number of Varroa mites in a bee colony may be reduced to a level not interfering with economic bee-keeping. This theoretical approach is based on the removal of combs in the month of May, when about ninety per cent of the mites have enclosed themselves in cells with developing larvae and puppae, to multiply.
