Celeste,

A few questions.

1- Was this a change from before, what were the pre-treatment mite counts?

2- Where did you place the treatment in the hive?  Where was the brood, where was the treatment?

3- Did you close off the bottom board with entrance wide open or something like this?

4- Are there other hives in the neighborhood (1-2 miles) what you know of that may be very high in mites?

5. Did you do two full treatments, 2 weeks apart?

Please share suggestions for the next step.  1.5 and 2 wks post end of full time for aqigaurd treatment in two different locations but close (mine and Ian’s), we both had post aqigaurd mite counts in the teens.  Thanks, Celeste
