>>There were reports of varroa kills in capped cells when beekeepers were using 85% formic but were also many brood and queen kills which is why beekeepers went to the lower percent.

Could the queen be removed from the hive for the duration of the treatment?

I just treated my hives with sucrocide for the second time and had the impression the bees' 'morale' had improved markedly since the first treatment.

Does anyone know if sucrocide kills TM as well as Varroa?

Thanks,
