Amitraz is not a stable molecule and when used in the manner as indicated (Cardboard strips etc.)
will not allow for proper control of V.d. in honey bee colonies.
This type of application will result in a chaotic and totally undesirable treatment regime!
Yes, the molecule kills V.d. BUT not with the required control that is necessary to validate that a
proper treatment has been undertaken.
Its use in a non legal manner is a big jump onto a very steep and slippy slope.
Regards,
Peter.
