I thought over the disadventages of oxalic acid. At least it makes many beekeepers mad.
I have no research about that. I just think.
 
Brought mine premixed, should only use 2.5 ml per seam and have been putting it off. Will now do it this next week.

Are you sure it's not 5ml/seam? what make is it?
 
I thought it should be 5ml but it does say 2.5ml, brought from Derby bees supplier shop. I will check with him on the strenght before I use it.

Now I invented why OA makes some mad. They debate so eagerly that they forget their medication. That have happened to me. Remember pills before you open beekeeping forum!
 
This reminds me a trying to catch a bar of soap in the bath - it always slips away just as you think you have caught it.

There are only 3 ingrediants - water, sugar and OA crystals. How they are mixed together and in what proportions is well established.

Or at least I thought they were.
 
By saying only use 2.5ml it may cover himself or its stronger. Dont know but will find out before I give it to them on Wednesday afternoon.
