In this video ill discuss the two methods i use to combat Varroa during the year. Why i use both methods, and which i use when and why.

Citation for the claim of the supposed inability for mites to develop OA resistance: Maggi, MD, et al (2017) The susceptibility of Varroa destructor against oxalic acid: a study case. Bulletin of Insectology 70

Thanks for taking the time to make the video! What has your experience been in regards to which method seems to be less harmful to the queen?
