[QUOTE="Alastair, post: 10256, member: 13"] James to figure out how to place the synthetic strips, realise that although there are mites all over the hive, they all gravitate to the brood so they can breed, and that's the best place to kill them. So you see where the brood is and then place the strips in amongst it but apart from each other, in such a way that if you imagine the chemicals radiating out from the strips, it is radiating through the brood area. Not out to one side of it. [/QUOTE]
