I just got off the phone with a commercial beekeeper wanting my opinion on a
oxalic acid formula he said was being used in South Dakota.

I said right off the bat seemed way to strong and not what is being used.

Here is the primitive formula.

1 gallon hot water with 8 pounds sugar mixed in and a pound of oxalic added.

To me the formula sounds double what is being used in Canada.

Allen?

I use Medhats formula based on grams and each liter of syrup.

Thanks in advance!
