[QUOTE="tristan, post: 11954, member: 30"] interesting they are nibbling on them. i will have a closer look next inspection. the pads are well above Randy's minimum dose, tho the surface area comes under question if frames are sitting on it or its getting covered in debris. one of the many many questions is how much does the pads hold permanently, ie how much will never come out. is there any point to having 200g a pad vers 100g? the strips seam to work ok even tho they hold a very very small amount. even if you double/triple treat (due to strips being removed by the bees) the amount is very little. we could use a thinner pad which holds less but fits in the bee space better. or a thicker pad that holds a lot that might last 3-4 months, which might be good against mite drift. lots of paths to go down.
