I am trying oav in 1 apiary I am treating every 3-4 days for 8-9 treatment just to see if it works, it will be really cheap if it does but i tell you it is a lot of time, I am doing it on Wednesday and sat every week. Going to do a mite check maybe a week later just to see if it worked. the rest i am using apigaurd this year 25 gr 3 treatments. first time for eithere of these ways so I will see what I like the best.
