Normal
I use OAV not staples, but....The mite counts in both hives have been insane for ages with Rua spiking in early Spring, then getting back down to reasonable levels, though still alot higher than ever before....only for Tahi to overload early summer.I have been doing the OAV every 3-4 days as often as I can, sometimes its been a week.Last week both hives are stably down to 23/25 after 24 hrs, so I'm starting a 7 day regime and will see how they go with that.Actually, Tahi's 25 count Was after 7 days.I did want to try the Apilife in late Spring but couldnt find any. I did get good results with that in that season when I did use it in ate Spring.
