I want to treat for varroa now that I have  removed my supers.  Is it OK to 
feed the colony while treating for varroa?  

I see some instructions, that instead of saying,"Always remove supers  before 
treating" say "Never treat during a honey flow"  and I wonder if  
contamination of the colony's own honey supply is an issue.

(I plan to  use CheckMite+ this time but I think the ApiLife Var has similar  
precautions.)

Thanks for any enlightenment.
