I use to worry about the shb and tried all sorts of things, but I have been really busy with work this year that I didn't get to tend to my bees as much, over the last couple of weeks I have been in the hives and they look better then ever, my queen's have been replaced and I expect they have swarmed.
The new Queen has raised some angrier bees that are not as nice to work with but I suspect handle the shb better. I will keep and eye on them, I only saw a few in each hive. I have apithor traps on standby which work great, but I think the bees look after themselves and we don't give them enough credit.
