Am still upset that the Star is suffering so much.
Left them their supers, as they have practically no honey in them anyway. Hopefully they'll clear those out soon.

Medication...
Folllowing yesterday's varroa count and the distressing results for Star, I put some Apiguard in today. This is a chemical that should kill the varroa to a level that is manageable. The bees then get a second helping of chemicals in January and that should hopefully solve the varroa problem for the time being.
