Hi All
 
At a recent lecture, the lecturer said that he is experimenting with using
Oil of Wintergreen for treating Acarine. The Oil of Wintergreen is inserted
into the hive entrance on a pad of absorbent material on the end of a piece
of wire for easy insertion and removal. The Oil of Wintergreen is supposed
to disorientate the mite responsible.
 
He has just started the treatment and is going to re charge the absorbent
material every month or so
 
Has anybody any experience of the above treatment please?
 
Sincerely
