That's interesting that it's always that species that gets the parasitic mites. I guess it's a good thing.

Mine only produced queen alates this summer. 1 of the new queens shredded her wings, maybe she got stuck in the nest for too long.

The queen was about 2 years old when alates were produced. However, she was outside for a year without much of food and brood. Then I brood boosted her and the colony just expanded crazily, partly also because they got constant access to foods and safe indoor.
