This does not make sense from a physics standpoint. Once mixed with air the density difference from pure air is negligible. The density difference might cause the formic air mix to settle for a few mm next to the formic source in still air. But a hive does not have still air. And at greater distances dilution with surrounding air is going to make the density difference too small to matter.
Dick, I am not quite following what your trying to say here about the formic vapors? Do you think they would in fact disperse at a high level even though on a bottom board???
I do know that when you use MAQS, you will without any doubt kill the grass in front of the hive, so those vapors do sink at least a bit.
Frank, In your note you said it works in the bottom super only, are you referring to just the standard hive body? Implying that the vapors wont rise in a larger hive??
