I acquired a Burgess Fogger some years ago when there was an interest in fogging mineral oil to control varroa. It's been sitting in my shed unused for many years but I now see that it is being used by some beekeepers to fog oxalic acid dissolved in alcohol.
Does anyone have any experience of using these for controlling the mites.
 
Had a go about 3 years ago fogging OA in ethyl alcohol. Eventually gave up when it became apparent that it was (very) approximately 10 - 20% less effective than sublimation. I have now reverted to the Gas-Vap which, with a little practice, gives good results.
