CART analysis results showing which stewardship concepts predict the belief that there are no advantages to managing for Varroa mites (i.e., Treatment Skeptic beekeeper type). Figure S2 provides greater detail and statistics for those interested

Predictor (stewardship concept)	% Beekeeper type stating each predictor
	Treatment skeptics (n = 63)	Non-skeptics (n = 3453)
Predictor 1: minimize human–bee interaction	23.8% (n = 15/63)	5.8% (n = 199/3453)
Predictor 2: avoid chemical use	16.7% (n = 8/48)	2.4% (n = 78/3254)
Predictor 3: provide forage	7.5% (n = 3/40)	1.7% (n = 55/3176)
