The one you’ve been waiting for! This product, oxalic acid in slow-release fiberboard strips, is going to be a game-changer and we’re so excited to be bringing it to the US market. Sustained release and high efficacy (average: 96.8%), means that VarroxSan can be used as a primary knockdown treatment, throughout the season. VarroxSan is approved for use during a honey flow, when supers are present.
VarroxSan® offers a natural solution for managing varroa mite infestations in honey bee colonies, utilizing oxalic acid in a convenient strip format. This treatment is not only highly effective but also incredibly simple to use. With its slow-release strips containing oxalic acid dihydrate, VarroxSan ensures precise dosing that effectively targets at least three life cycles of the varroa mite. As an organic compound, oxalic acid is naturally present in various plants, making this treatment a safe choice for your bees. In many hive types, one strip of VarroxSan is recommended for every 2.5 brood frames covered with bees. The strip can be folded to be applied between the brood frames. When using medium boxes, apply one strip for every 5 frames of bees. Double mediums should be treated as a deep box.
VarroxSan is well-tolerated by honey bees, with no effect on brood or adult bee population. VarroxSan does not leave any detectable residues in wax or honey, nor cause any change to the pH, moisture content or other characteristics of honey.
