Apivar 12 Pack

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

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.

Apivar Pros: Convenient strips and easy to follow directions Put a date on the strip, tack it on, and come back to remove when it’s time and you will see dead mites Apivar Cons: Highly toxic and taints honey, wax, etc… You can read about this stuff for days on Reddit posts to scientists blogs. The problem is this. No one has a straight forward answer to how toxic. Their own website states different things. I have read beekeepers state they handle it with no gloves for multiple boxes and others state it is cancerous.. Why risk it? I would love to know if after a few month of product sitting..like honey.. is it always there or does it breakdown into more harmful compounds? We made the mistake of tainting our honey. It is great for a new colony, as pictured above, this 1 is a nuc. They need their honey reserves for the first winter. Next year we will find another alternative for our hives. It was good for what was needed at the time.

Reasonable pricing, good product

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

Worked for me.

Be careful. Make certain you are ready to use these immediately. The package I received was within a month of expiration date.
