I was just looking thru the Brushy Mountain catalog and found this statement in the mite and beetle control section.

Quote

We do not sell any form of Formic Acid because we are afraid of what it might do to you and/or your bees.

Ironically on the same page they sell Apistan and Check Mite. :roll:


Sometimes it is best to say nothing........

Even the warnings about thymol are pretty scary. Ironically, thymol is one of the 599 additives in cigarettes, admitted by some of the tobacco companies. Do a search for 599 ingredients cigarettes.

Makes one think twice about smoking.
