What about Bayvarol? (flumethrin).

From Wikipedia (has a good reference list):
On treatment with fluvalinate, varroa develops a cross-resistance with all
pyrethoids (such as flumethrin, amitraz and acrinathrin).

But it did not seem true here.  We had fluvalinate resistance but amitraz
works (up to now, anyway).  So, I am wondering about flumethrin.

By the way, has Amitraz ever been registered in the US, or is the
resistance there all from illicit use?
