Interesting as apparenly no effect on honey quality even if misused - can we have references to the papers so we can look them up?  
UK government publication 'Managing Varooa' , 2000, lists oxalic as unauthorised but says 90% efficacy is possible , best in broodless conditions, more scientific trials needed.  Time to press the UK National Bee Unit?
