Excellent practice Bob!
I remember some beek's 'making their own strips'
during the late 90's.  It failed those who have tried
it, and have heard some reports of beekeepers getting
ill.  Very dangerous,  also a known carcinogen.

"Farmers who say exposure to the dips has affected
their health complain of symptoms including excessive
tiredness, headaches, limb pains, disturbed sleep,
poor concentration, mood changes, and thoughts of
suicide." (BBC News, July 1, 1999)
