I always wanted a systemic solution for varroa but
researchers are not looking so I guess will never
come. Works with ticks on dogs & cats but complicated
research has always been the reply from researchers.
Drop the systemic in syrup and forget about varroa .
one bite and varroa is history!
I like the idea too Bob. The problem I see is that
the dog/cat/flea/tick problem is between mammals and
insects while the honey bee/mite problem is between
insects. That makes it so much harder to identify a
species specific systemic miticide. What affects the
mite usually also affect the bee. Oh for a systemic
sollustion. :)
