I would love to see testimonials from those who used FGMO
exclusively over the past few years, including their application
method. That thread died off I think because those who used it
went elsewhere, but I hope not.
I tried it instead of crisco patties for varroa and tracheal
mites, but also use Apistan for varroa, so any results I get are
not valid.
For us in Maine, this year appears to be the next major varroa
kill year. Only my guess, but with all the swarms for a varroa
safe haven, and laxness I have seen from some beekeepers who were
lucky and did not treat, the mite has a good breeding ground. So
if FGMO works this year I will be a believer.
