Hi all
I've read a few threads about treating swarms for varroa, but I wondered if people had used OA sublimation to do so? As it seems to have so little impact on colonies during winter I thought it'd be fine to treat a newly housed swarm with it. Has anyone done so? I've seen a reference to it on one website where they suggest .5g of OA crystals for a swarm.
Thanks
Norman
