Is Dawn Dish Soap as effective as 91% Isopropyl Alcohol for Mite Wash Counts?
The results have me scratching my head...Are the mite counts too low using Alcohol and does this mean the bees are doomed? Im a little worried...
Test Method:
Dawn Ultra Dish Soap 1-1/2 TBS per Gallon
Vs.
91% Isopropyl Rubbing Alcohol
Testing:
-Each Varroa Easy Check Mite Cup filled 1/3
-Shaken/swirled for 1 min
-Rested for 1 min,
-shaken/swirled for 1 more minute,
-rest for 1 minute
-followed by mite count.
-count the dead bees in the sample
-divide dead bee count by mite count to get %.
