This research is being undertaken in NZ during your winters by Victoria University and involves two lots of 100 hives in two regions of NZ
Results reported so far are that it does not kill mites but stops reproduction. The mites sexual parts are enlarged and therefore don’t work.
I have forwarded Peter’s comments to Prof Phil Lester. He may comment.
