Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 148, Issue 7, Page 790-792, August 2024.Abstract Small hive beetles (SHB), Aethina tumida, are free‐flying parasites, which actively seek and invade honeybee host colonies. Previous research suggests that SHB prefer colonies in the shade. Further, it has been stated that SHB invade any colony with equal impunity. Though, the impact of colony aggressiveness on SHB infestation levels has never
