>Fipronil is not approved for in hive use. Any use of the product inside a beehive is against the label, and illegal.

Not so in Australia.  We have a product called Apithor which is a harbourage trap for SHB. See https://www.apithor.com.au/  Well researched before approval.  See https://www.agrifutures.com.au/wp-content/uploads/publications/07-146.pdf 

I believe it is now registered for use in Canada for monitoring.  If not right I am sure Medhat will correct me.
