+AD4-My question is what is the ratio for mixing apple cider vinegar, malt
+AD4-vinegar or vinegar to your sugar water?
 
We add approx 1 tablespoon per Gallon, primarily to prevent fermentation but
there appears to be more to this than first thought. Personally, we have on
occasion added more without any bad effects and the bees still took it down.
Not very scientific I must admit, but sometimes during a busy season it's
easy to make mistakes.
