Considering the uncertainty of possible versions of a further development of the varroosis situation worldwide, the game theory allows one to evaluate the effectiveness of implementations of different strategies limiting its negative influence on honey bee colonies. In the analysis of currently available strategies, games against the Nature are used. According to the results, the modern beekeeping industry should implement all possible treatment measures against varroosis. The only viable alternative to drug therapy is the amplification of tick-resistant honey bee colonies, after which other scenarios can be used. Preliminary measures must also include the research of medicinal drugs with the least negative effect on honey bee colonies and the consequent maximum economic effect.
