This was a very interesting conversation about treatment-free beekeeping. If you'd rather watch this exchange, you can view it here on my Youtube channel: https://youtu.be/_QPOUVZjxJo

In this episode I speak with treatment free Master Beekeeper Angela Tollerson from Montana. We cover many topics including brood breaks, commercial beekeeping, and the often misunderstood concepts of selection for unassisted survival.  To see the video version of this conversation, please visit "The Mite Bomb Beekeeping Podcast" on YouTube. 

South African beekeeper Chris Kroger visits the podcast to tell me if the things I've heard about beekeeping there are true or false. A chirping bird also makes an extended appearance. I'd love to hear your thoughts (not about the bird).  To watch this discussion on YouTube: https://youtu.be/7BezNyqxzQM  (please leave your comments there) To check out Chris's TikTok: https://vm.tiktok.com/ZM88QWQGA/

In this episode, I speak with Casie Berkhouse, a biology instructor and beekeeper from Northern Pennsylvania. This episode, like most others, is unedited and completely unscripted. I'd love to hear your feedback!

Today my guest is Justin Shiffler, a fellow member of my local bee club. We often butt heads when talking about treatment free beekeeping, and what tf beekeepers "should" or shouldn't do. We finally decided to sit down and clear things up. https://www.facebook.com/HatTrickHoney/ https://www.facebook.com/mitebombs/ https://www.youtube.com/user/rodriguezbruce
