Our VSH F1 virgin queens come from our absolute best breeder queen stock which are proven mite resistant. VSH queens show significant suppressed mite reproduction and require little to no chemical treatment interventions. VSH virgin queens are a great way to begin introducing the VSH trait set into your apiary.
Its important that you know how to introduce virgin queens. We highly recommend nucleus colonies full of nurse bees and with no open brood. For more details on how to introduce virgin queens check out this link on the SBGMI website .
