    Monica-concerning the mites problem, will the colony eventually decline or swarm?

      It would have if left to fend for itself. Usually the Africanized Hybrid Bees, when they get to high of a mite load, will abscond. I did not put any of their sealed brood into their new home. I gave them drawn empty comb, a protein patty, and sugar syrup to rebuild. This way only the mites on the bees themselves are transferred into the new hive body. After they get re-established I will treat them for mites.
