[QUOTE="Mummzie, post: 3260, member: 5"] That is an acceptable situation for this stage of the treatment cycle. The strips do not kill the mites in the brood cells, so if it takes aprox 3 weeks for a full brood cycle, there could still be a few mites running around who got into cells in the early stages of treatment, and are just emerging. This is why the placement of the strips is important. If the strips are near the brood, it maximises their effectiveness. Its also why the strips should stay in place for 2 full brood cycles, and the reason its recommended they get moved with the brood. well done with the monitoring- it keeps you ahead of the game.
