Title: Has anyone used the Apivar strips yet?
Post by: AliciaH on April 03, 2013, 07:12:33 pm

I inserted strips in all my hives March 24.  I'm not seeing a lot of mite drop and I know I have them.  I was wondering if anyone else had tried Apivar and what their experiences were?

I can tell you that my TBH has a window (all the rest of my hives are Langs) and I noticed the bees were avoiding one of the strips.  I wonder if this is happening in the other hives.  I'm thinking that relocating the strip may be in order.
