I used to clean my teak boat deck with dilute oxalic acid
Trouble is, the pen pushers are aware of OA being used for beekeeping, and have already said that using generic OA is illegal, so yes, the only way would be to make using neat OA 'legal' by VMD licence which would be a real battle I think, and once someone sees there's money to be made from it............
Took me 19 emails and proof of business with receipts before they let me have the oxalic.All sorted now for the next18 months.I've just bought 1kg crystals from APC Pure for £15.85 delivered. You only need to give any company name (which I have) but no other questions asked.
What sort of business did you have to have? Wood related?Took me 19 emails and proof of business with receipts before they let me have the oxalic.All sorted now for the next18 months.
Bought 3kg off the bay with no questions asked.
Interesting! Not a business that should be using OABeekeeping.
pity we don't have a national representative body to fight our corner over important matters such as this
The idea has been examined here for years but the body that ought to have agitated and organised an OA license did the opposite, supported the VMD and the commercial interest to help authorise the clag we have: ApiBioxal (same stuff as Mr Poot bought, no doubt, but with added clag and tick-boxes).make it look more attractive to get a license for plain old OA
