Chris Slade wondered about cost. In the US a single Apistan strip costs
between $1.40-$2.00, depending on supplier and quantity purchased. Each
hive will require between 4 to 8 strips annually, depending on hive
population. Therefore annual cost is between $5.60-$16.00, depending on
cost of strips and hive population. There is no subsidy.
Chris, your message came through as the UK cost being sterling 36. I am
certain that is not correct. Please re-send your UK cost.
