Does that mean that you won’t do a treatment against mites this year? (Myself, I have never done that; the bees here have died of other reasons so far. With a split now from someone else, I just don’t know if mites had already been introduced into the hive before they arrived here.) Thanks for any responses!

Greetings SDCBeeks:
I know this was brought up earlier in the summer, and I'm curious what people's experiences are now as we close the summer: we have been having very low (neglible) mite counts this year.
Are others having "regular" mite years so far, or lower than average? (and of course the #s will go up as fall kicks in...)
Thanks for responding with your observations this summer!
