[QUOTE="Annika, post: 12228, member: 715"] Just putting my opinion and experience of formic pro here. Doesn't appear to be much info on the site about it. I'm a pretty new hobbyist, made a lot of errors along the way as we do. My booming hive this season was treated with bayvarol in late spring. Learnt the importance of testing for numbers when colony was overrun with varroa. Quickly chucked in some bayvarol and reread the control of varroa book. And scoured the net. I culled huge ammount of brood. All full of varroa and destined for dwv. Worst case I'd seen. Opted for formic pro. Has worked wonders and created brood break also another bonus. One is currently re queening and after alot of stress and worrying things are looking good for autumn. There are a lot of varied results and opinions on this product but i felt it was ideal. Ventilation is key and the 14 to 20 option is gentler especially from smaller colonies. [/QUOTE]
