Prefect

A must have as a beekeeper.

Great product but be conservative on its use when applying to small or weak hives. I killed my hive by giving a full dose to a weak hive. The product will kill some bees who are old or weak anyway. But what happened to my hive was that a few bees died and partially blocked the entrance which caused the vapor concentration to increase, which caused more bees to die. The process snowballed and the hive suffocated on the fumes. In my opinion, the product’s effectiveness comes from its being distributed throughout the hive so it comes into contact with the mites. But venting the fumes is important and cannot be accomplished successfully by a weak hive. So use half doses in sequence rather than a full dose on a weak or small population hive.

Seeing how I'm online looking to purchase this again, I thought I would write a review. 2-year review. Follow the directions and you will have good results. I've noticed a reduction of the Verona mites within all of my hives where I have used this. I've already recommended this product to other people.

Works great for my bees

These were very easy to use in the hive

Good price but box was squashed and trays out of shape on arrival.

Thank you
