Oxalic acid vapourising in Polystyrene hives
Has anyone done this? I have Paynes Polystyrene hives and am very pleased with them. I want to use my Varox vapouriser to treat the hives and make sure I haven't got too much varroa. I used to rely on counting mite drop but have been told that this can be unreliable and that others who thought they had little or no varroa have discovered they had a lot when they used the vapouriser. From what I've read online I think others have put the tray under the OMF. This would mean inserting the varox tray from the back of the hive and blocking up the back as well as the front entrance.
Any advice would be gratefully received
