Can we ask what treatment you were able to use as a back-up to oxalic, so
late in the year?
Also, James Hock has posted thoughts on sprinkling powder sugar down the
seams and of dusting with powdered sugar using a bulb duster - you have
bumped bees into a cardboard box and shaken them with sugar I remember - can
you share comments on bulb dusting? Is that a possible late season
treatment?
