I just received a bottle from Dadant.  The label makes no mention of
honey or supers. The "storage and disposal section" has the same
statement as on all pesticide bottles:  " Do not contaminate water food
or feed by storage or disposal".    There is no mention of food or feed
elsewhere on the label. There are warnings for eye and skin contact and
for swallowing that also appear to be the standard wording for pesticide
containers.  On the specific label it does mention "substantial but
temporary eye injury" and environmental hazard to aquatic life.   Other
than mixing and timing, the most specific directions are attached
separately:  "Additional instructions: Remove frames with adhering bees
and spray both sides".

degrees F tomorrow.
