How To Use The InstantVap! Full Tutorial For Beekeepers. Oxalic Acid Vaporizer

In this video I have Duncan Simmons the Main Agent for InstantVaP in the UK. We take a look at some new products they have to compliment the InstantVap.

As mentioned many times the InstantVap is a great oxalic acid vaporizer. Its designed to kill varroa mites very efficiently! Oxalic acid sublimation is a very effective treatment for varroa mites.
We treat bees with Oxalic Acid vaporisation in this video together and make very light work of the job.
Its important to note if your in the UK the approved treatment is ApiBioxal. And not Oxalic Acid.

Hopefully after watching this video you will know how to treat your bees with oxalic acid vaporisation.

just bought mine yesterday in 🇨🇦 i only have 15 hives, but time is precious. thank you for this video 🙏 looking forward to using this new device!

Great products. I was actually about to design and 3D print a mould for making a silicone cover. Also very useful for at the end of your vaping, stops nozzle burning anything

Received mine last week. I had to get a couple of 5.5 AH batteries for it. My existing 2AH ones just werent enough. Having said that, the Vap is excellent, it really pumps out the gas so well. It's expensive - but I expect many years use and the Vap is incredibly simple to use - and it's FAST.

Just ordered one of these at the weekend 👍

Nobody has had any problem with the O- rings the inventor said. He just gives two extra in case. I heard mineral oil was bad for O- rings somewhere and also that it was best to remove battery when purging the device. Maybe none of that even matters though.

How would this work on some poly hives that have a large landing board at the front that can’t not be removed? Is there an extension piece that can get past these landing boards? Or do you have to drill a hole in the back of the hive floor and use with silicone cap?

Hey Duncan-- great to match a face to your Facebooks posts- I'm in the United States... I've got Lorrobbes here as our distributor.

[jackscarecrow]

Duncan came to show you how to use it properly ;)

Must be great to spend the day with Duncan on the bees! Some keepers would kill for the opportunity 😂 what kind of back up is there in terms of parts/ repairs?

Just ordered mine a few days ago, Christmas gift to myself!!! I see there is a mark 2 coming out that’s slimmer and lighter!! Still prefer the look of this version tho, the new one looks less sturdy!

[bradgoliphant]

Where did you get that black and white protection mask?

[JeanLaValley]

Cleaning is the biggest pain. I would love a cartidge system for water... that way it doesnt have the cap pop risk.

That's a handy piece of kit for large amounts of hives, no batteries to carry about.
Do you have to supply your own battery, or is it available on the website?

[paulchase]

Will there be dewalt versions at the bee show at Telford

[tstfhayden]

hi, my last comment seems to have been removed - not sure why - I'm trying to find out where to get this from your featured UK agent ?

[jaumecambra]

Such Instantvap is pretty good. For how many hives you can use it with a 18v 5Ah battery?

[lynnerousseau]

How many grams of Api Bioxal did you use? How can you tell when its "done"-- by watching the temp drop?? so you know when it time to move to the next hive...and not interrupt the treatment in the middle of vaping it?

[ollysue]

Do I see a competition coming for your old one 🤔🤔🤔😉😉

[mickhoyle]

Thanks, seems a great product but looks like you can't buy the silicone cover or water cleaning cap on their website.

[PeadarBoc]

How would this work with poly hives that have the fixed landing board extending out the front?
