Just received T's paper catalogue. Their 'Introduction' states "Sadly, you won't find Trickle 2 or oxalic acid solution in our catalogue. The Veterinary Medicines Directorate have instructed that this must be withdrawn...."
But Hurrah! they still sell oxalic acid crystals (p.65) for 'cleaning weathered cedar..." !!
Puzzlingly, T's website still lists generic OA as a Varroa treatment. I fear they risk imminent prosecution.

I still can't get my head round the logic of banning generic OA - but this has been forked over on the Forum before. Big Pharma I suppose. I think BBKA should have mounted a vigorous objection.
Meanwhile I'll continue vapping my crystallised distillate of rhubarb leaves.....![Roll eyes :rolleyes: :rolleyes:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
