Grateful that there is a treatment that can be used during honey flow. Very strong but it works great as long as I stick to the guidelines as last year I made the mistake of using it during hot temperatures and lost queens and bees. It does go very dry but I presume it is still working during the recommended time. Very expensive for me as a retired hobby beekeeper, but keeping my girls healthy is top priority.
This is very strong smelling so. was not surprised to see quit a lot of dead drones infant of the hive the next day. But losing drones is ok as long as I was following the instructions for 14 days and my hive is strong. I think its working ok, so I will use it again but the lower dose for 10 days. Heard good and bad results.....only first time using this and happy so far. Does dry up a bit.
