Has anyone considered combining this oxalic acid treatment with the FGMO
treatment with a fogger?
I don't want to open up "old wounds" but Mineral oil treatment with the
fogger only takes about 5 seconds per hive.  I've been using it for the
first time this year and have not had a mite problem.  Its said to kill the
tracheal mite also.
I wonder if you could dissolve the acid in the mineral oil and weather it
would damage the fogger? It would be a lot quicker then the vapor method.
