New Bee
I am a new beekeeper. I have one hive and I applied the OA yesterday. Today I looked at the hive and there were already a lot of dead mites on the inspection board. Clearly mites are very well controlled by this substance. When I applied it I thought that getting a direct dose onto each bee is impossible and most of the bees must pick it up from other bees rather from the trickle.
So getting a good kill of mites is great but does anyone have any experience of applying it twice and getting an even better result.
