I'm just off the phone from checking back with the beekeeper who felt that
he had some supersedure problems with the new Miteaway Quick Strips, as well
as speaking with another Calif beek who used them at the same time.  The
other beek, a queen producer, was very happy with the product.

It seems at this point that only older queens were superseded, and not at an
excessively high rate.  However, the treated colonies had a bit of setback.
 It sounds like it might be wise to be careful using the strips shortly
before a honey flow, and to be sure that there is plenty of ventilation at
the entrance, or that you crack the brood boxes.

I'll be running a test soon, and am eager to hear from others.
