[QUOTE="tristan, post: 748, member: 30"] it harms bees and people. if it didn't it wouldn't kill mites. it also will put residue in honey if you don't use it correctly. its nothing new, its been done for many many years. unfortunately its rather common for people to go into beekeeping with preconceived ideas that are not realistic. most of them usually kill their hives. they end up with a box in the garden and stories of how the "used to be a beekeeper". :rolleyes: sorry if thats harsh but the goal is beekeeping not "treating hives with ............". start with beekeeping first, move on to the fancy stuff later.
