I've compared apivar and 5X OAV treatments spaced 5 days apart.  Mid
July-August treatment.

The end resulting mite count was virtually identical between the two
treatments.  Difference being that apivar cost $12 per hive, and OAV was
far less than $1 per hive (obviously, the cost of the Easy Vap decreases
with each successive treatment).

I use Johno's easy vap, which is $165 and does the exact same function as
the $500 provap 110.
