Description
Olivarez Honey Bees (OHB) Saskatraz Queen Bees, selected for honey production, wintering ability, temperament, tracheal mite resistance, varroa tolerance / resistance and brood diseases. With these exceptional traits and their remarkable characteristics, OHB's Saskatraz Queen Bees are the ideal choice for beekeepers. The Saskatraz breeding program uses recurrent natural selection to select for varroa tolerance in productive colonies with good economic traits.
