which life stage of the honey bee is most commonly fed upon by the varroa mite
Varroa destructor The adults suck the "blood" (hemolymph) of adult honey bees for sustenance, leaving open wounds and transmitting diseases and viruses. The compromised adult bees are more prone to infections. With the exception of some resistance in the Russian strains and bees that have Varroa sensitive hygiene (about 10% of colonies naturally have it), the European Apis mellifera bees are almost completely defenseless against these parasites. (Russian honey bees are one-third to one-half less susceptible to mite reproduction).[2]
Ascaris lumbricoides Infections with these parasites are more common where sanitation is poor,[10] and raw human feces are used as fertilizer.
