Oxalic- have I done it wrong?

[Skyhook]

Yes, another query about oxalic- sorry. I've just treated my girls, and pleased to see them looking strong- 6 seams full. Treated accordingly excatly as seen on youtube etc, , but noticed afterwards that some had dripped through onto the ground underneath. Is this normal, and should I add more to make up for it?

Treated with trickle 2, ie 3.2% in syrup, pre-mixed. 6X5ml, therefore 30ml applied in total.

Cheers people.

Don't worry about a few drips. At the edges of the cluster where there are few or no bees the stuff will just pass though. It is why it is hard to overdose providing you do 5ml per seam. You could have done all the seams and any excess just drops out.
