Perhaps you mean Varroa Mite? It's a tiny insect that lives parasitically on honey bees. In countries where the Varroa Mite is not indigenous, the honey bees have not natural resistance, and if the mite does get loose it can devastate the honey bee population.

The Verona mite, also known as Tetranychus urticae, is a species of spider mite that is a common pest in agricultural crops. They feed on plant sap by piercing the plant cells with their mouthparts, causing damage to the plant. Controlling Verona mites often involves integrated pest management strategies such as using natural enemies, pesticides, and cultural practices.
