I have just done my first detailed inspection of the year. One of my hives has plenty of BAS BUT also loads of capped drone cells. I noticed a couple of workers with deformed wings and when I uncapped a section of the drone cells there was lots of varroa. I treated in the Autumn with the recommended trays of varroa killer . What do I do now ?
Thanks:thanks:
 
I would use maqs
Expensive but worth a shot.

MAQS or oxalic acid vapour if you have the kit.
When did you treat and with what? Apiguard success is temperature dependent and of course you have to treat early enough to make sure your winter bees are not infected with varroaborne viruses
