You can easily see the results of them tunneling under the wax of your capped frames of honey.

Wouldn't it nice if that was all we had to worry about?  :)

Ken, freakin' ugileee-looking things, aren't they, eeks!!!  Have a great and awesome day, Cindi
There are strange things done in the midnight sun by the men who moil for gold.  The Arctic trails have their secret tales that would make your blood run cold.  The Northern Lights have seen queer sights, but the queerest they ever did see, what the night on the marge of Lake Lebarge, I cremated Sam McGee.  Robert Service

Mike,
Do we have these in the US?


Yes. They are "braula coeca", and are actually a wingless fly.
