Open mesh floors may be helping towards the natural selection of stronger mites, weaker mites, ones that could of otherwise of just crawled off the floor onto another bee, been less aggressive, as they only slowly amble around, and even lost the use of, or grow less legs, now fall out through the mesh floor, thus removing them and their weakness from the gene pool, leaving only stronger more aggressive mites, ones that may of grown extra legs to hang on even better...so best look out for nine armed/legged mites with extra large biceps.
