> Chinese Varroa strips
Interestingly, I met Mr. Wang at Apimondia in Vancouver. Since we had
discussed the Wang strips on BEE-L, and I saw they had an exhibit, I
expressed a great deal of interest at their booth. They gave me a
sample and literature, then my wife and I went for coffee nearby. A few
minutes later, the staff came over and introduced a middle-aged
gentleman to us and we sat together for a while. I speak no Chinese,
and he spoke no English, so it took me a while to realise who he was.
The sample strip, when we examined it, turned out to be a sort of
fabric, not like Apistan. We never did use it, and never did order any
either. (I mentioned this previously. See

We had a discussion about Chinese strips back in 1998 & 99 (see

FWIW, www.varroa.com is no longer an active site.
