Trapping Comb Method
The trapping comb method is a biotechnical varroa control technique where the queen is caged on a single frame while remaining brood is removed. Varroa mites concentrate on the single comb with brood, which is then removed and destroyed. This method significantly reduces the mite load without chemical treatments.
