Suggestions for protecting honey bees from parasites
Suggestions for protecting honey bees from parasites:
To protect the brood from external parasitic mites (Tropilaelaps clareae) apply sulphur dust on the upper stalks of hives at the rate of one gram per hive.
Use formic acid (85%) fume 5ml daily for two consecutive weeks for an effective solution.
