<<In trying to
decide whether to use formic acid gel this spring, I'm unsure how to relate
what has been discussed about formic acid to what is legal here.>>

If formic acid depresses brood rearing, would it make more sense to apply
Apistan in the spring and formic in the fall, since beekeepers want their
bees to build up for honey flows at the start of the season?
