 To know: the Varroa mite attacks physically. It is a parasite that burries itself together with the larce in the closed cell, while the larce is in the popping phase. The Varroa mite (and its offspring - their offspring cycle is faster than the days the larve needs to pop into a bee, so 1 Varroa mite goes into the cell but during popping more mites can be born and become attackers too) makes a hole in the lymph node of the larve and starts sucking the lymph fluids. This weakens the immune system of the larve/young bee so that it becomes less resistant towards all kinds of illnesses and natural ennemies. To know: the Varroa mite attacks physically.
