Peter said:
In fact, Amitraz lost its ability to deal with V.d. shortly after the
appearance of fluvalinate
resistance. Over several years, Faucon tracked the gradual demise of these
two molecules. Amitraz followed practically the same curve of efficiency
loss as Fluvalinate.

USDA testing in the U.S. came up with the same result.

Honey has been put on a three year watch list by the FDA.

 Illegal use of Amitraz is being checked for.
