At least one of the Apiservices mirrors has a related article in
english!
MINERAL OIL AS AN ALTERNATIVE TREATMENT FOR HONEY BEE MITES
by Dr.R
"http://www.beekeeping.com/articles/mineral_oil.htm"
The body of the article seems to be inconclusive if not negative as far
as the effectiveness of FGMO is concerned. The final section reads
optimistically and as posted by Bill (re. the french article) describes
ongoing work to use a  "Burgess Portable Propane Insect Fogger" (some
info can be found on the net) to distribute the FGMO throughout the hive
in an effective and quick manner.

cheers Tony
