Upon returning from a Christmas trip to England, a member of the Comox
Valley Beekeepers Association reported of an article read in a (national)
newspaper that the three accepted treatments for Varroa mites are
considered to be: Apistan, fourmic acid and talcum powder. Unfortunately he
was not able to gather any information on the talcum powder treatment. Do
any BEE-Lers, especially in the UK know anything about this or is it just a
red herring?
