Greetings fellow listers,
A beekeeper ased me today if he could use formic acid that was bought 2 years ago. It was kept in a tight container. He was worried because usually when he treats, there is an immediate humming in the hive and the bees tend to be excited for a few minutes. But when he treated last week, there was little reaction by the bees.
So I wonder for how long can a beekeeper keep his formic acide before it looses its qualities (given that it is kept in a tight container) ?
Thanks
