Apivar Strips Varroa Mite Treatment for Honey Bees with Easy Rip Strips 97-99% Effective Against Mites (60 Pack)

Will recommended if you grow bees. this product has saved the life of my bees and now I am ordering them at least 3 times a year just to make sure that I have it in case that will need. They are easy to use

After I put this in my bee hive I noticed my bee population increased alot. I just don't like that I can't use the honey.

These work fine

This product is one of a few that can be used to control the level of Varroa destructor mites in beehives. I've not needed to use this yet but I'm aware it is just a matter of time before I will need to intervene in the control of mite level in my hives. Value is there as this was priced lower than same product in other sellers and areas around me.

Very happy with the ease of use of the strips. It has a tab so the strips do not fall through the frames, and the strip dangles between the frames. Easy to put in place and tear apart. Price was much much better than other strips.

I had to wait to install these into my hives until the honey supers were off but put them on about two weeks ago. They were super easy to just slip between the brood box frames. The directions recommended wearing protective gloves so I just wore latex gloves over my bee keeping leather gloves and threw them away in the bag with the packaging. It took a bit of work getting latex over the leather but worked out really well. One package with 4 strips treated one of my two brood box hives. I ordered a second package for my second hive. I did not notice any odors from these and my bees don't seem to care that they are in there at all. I checked the slide out tray under one of my hives yesterday and it was covered in dead mites! My mite loads did not indicated that high when I tested but there were loads of them in the tray. They stay in about 6 weeks so I hoping to get a good window that I can get them out in a month depending on temps. That is the only concern that I have using these at the end of the year is that you don't want to leave them in over the winter. So far though, these are working at decreasing my mite loads and I have nothing negative to say thus far.

Worked for me.

They were delivered today and have less than 3 months left before expiring. Might date Oct 12 2023. I put 3 stars because yes they are supposed to be still good but is an old product that has been around on a shelf.
