Read the studies and use what they have learned to influence your experiments. Use google scholar and other resources to dig deep. To conclude, the dynamics of the treatment affected the degree of infestation in bee colonies. However, the efficacy of sugar dusting was significantly lower in comparison with the one of flumethrin (positive control). Thus, in spite of considerable favourable effects on the decline in the degree of infestation with mites, by no means may dusting with pulverised sugar be advised to beekeepers as the one and only means of bee protection against V. destructor. The treatment with sugar dust applied in a way described in the work may be used as means of combat against varroa in combination with biotechological measures or organic acids and aetheric oils in organic bee keeping. We reject our hypothesis that biweekly dustings with powdered sugar would significantly reduce varroa populations. Even though dusting with powdered sugar resulted in significant mite fall initially (Fakhimzadeh, 2000), we did not find an overall reduction in colony mite populations within the limits of our study.
