I applied MAQ strips for the first time this afternoon and didn't read the instructions properly.
I didn't realise their were two strips per satchet and need to be divided and instead unwrapped the plastic wrapper and put the contents of two satchets on each hive i.e. four strips.
What to do now?
It's getting dark so no chance to correct today.
Instructions say in case of overdose to increase ventilation but don't remove the strips.
Or do I just leave and hope for the best?
