Hello All

When trawling the Internet recently I came across the info below from a UK
company. They have sent me the data as .PDF files, and the claims are
persuasive, at least they are well documented. Maybe this is just a latter
day Essential Oils cure - but maybe not!

With Happy Hive Salts the pure image of honey can remain intact.
Not only are the salts guaranteed safe and reliable ,they also extend the
foraging life of the honeybees due to `hormesis`protecting them from
pesticides and leading to a better honey crop .No other Varroa treatment
does this.
Every pack of Copper Gluconate organic salts will treat 5 ,20 or 40 colonies
twice,both spring and fall.They are not a shock treatment where mite levels
are allowed to build up to high levels rather they continue to work over the
mid to long term resulting in only very low levels of mites at any time.
Appropriate doses of Copper Gluconate are added to the bees food .A varroa
absorbing the haemolymph of a bee or drone nourished in this way ,is
asphyxiated within some days .Indeed ,Varroas respiration is assured by
external membranes (peritremes)and by particular cells
(haemocyanins)transporting the oxygen to its whole organism .Copper salts
`block`these cells activity and are harmless for the bees because their
respiration is assured by a trachael system.


A FREE sample of Happy Hive Salts together with valuable scientific reports
on the use of Copper Gluconate is available on request. A Zipped file
containing the articles in PDF format can be sent by E Mail. The Adobe
Acrobat Reader is available freely from www.adobe.com
