Apivar - Honey super left on whilst treating

[Stevo1977]

Hi Folks,

So last year for one of my hives I left them a Honey super on for stores as they seemed a little light going into winter. The hive consisted of a double brood and the super with no QE, at the same time I was treating with Apivar. The concern I have now is that the super as of now is still pretty much full of honey (they didn't really consume much of it) I have placed it above the QE as of now however I assume that any of the honey in that super has the potential to have come into of contact with the Apivar and is not fit for Human consumption?

Thanks for any input.

You are probably correct.
I think I would remove that supper and store it for next winters food supplies for the bees

Not surprised - more than enough room for stores in a single brood - let alone a double

Constructive.
