[QUOTE="tristan, post: 13896, member: 30"] had a quick look at how it works. i'm a little skeptical at some of the claims. the reason being is it works by being stored in the the brood food. it only works if the stores are eaten and i suspect will be gone once all the stores its in are eaten. thats going to take a fair bit of management. avoid heavy flows also includes feeding. its clearly problematic with anyone who leaves honey supers on. so really its more of a early spring or winter treatment (unless you have sharp single honey flows). probably excellent for northland winter. but it also doesn't help with reinvasion, which is a big problem. most likely will have to be combined with something else. otherwise it looks like another useful tool in the tool box. can't wait for it to be available here.
