Snippet from Monk Benedict:
>>Insect foggers are another story, I'm sure. There seem to be a lot of videos about using a fogger with oxalic dissolved into alcohol, and >>sprayed into the hive using the fogger. Wouldn't this method possibly dry out the brood??
Jeepers! Alcohol is the best way I know to euthanize a colony...quick, humane as possible, effective (think what happens when you do an alcohol wash...). I think this method would do more than dry out brood, it would completely kill every bee in the colony.
But I guess that would kill all the mites too. : )
