Sorry, I missed the question.  Glad Jonathan replied.  As he says, P-O's
page is absolutely excellent.  It has very clear pictures and text.

Also, Cor Dewit is curently testing OA evaporation in Canada and you can see
his setup at http://www.honeybeeworld.com/diary/articles/cor.htm.  He has
used nothing but OA for two seasons and drops about 18 mites per hive,
average, per treatment.  I;m planning to visit him some day soon, and hope
to have a fuller report.

I've also collected various formic and oxalic links over the past few years
and posted them at  http://www.honeybeeworld.com/formic/default.htm, and
FWIW, a few additional items can be found from
http://www.honeybeeworld.com/diary/menus/topics.htm
