I've tested my bees for mites. Now I'm treating my bees... My plan was to use Apivar, but I have been hearing a growing chorus of internet chatter that Apivar isn't as effective as it once was or that varroa mites were developing a resistance to it. That sentiment made me question myself last year and I DIDN'T use it... And you all know what happened when I screwed up my Oxalic treatments. So I decided to try it again this year because it had always been reliable for me. One of my hives had such a high mite count that I even did a little something extra... One big shot of Oxalic Acid Vapor! The end of the video contains the results after just 7 days of Apivar treatment.
