My photocopy from the filing cabinet (several years lying there!) says:
Fumidil-B is available in two formats.  The 0.5g container is the
equivalent of 5 teaspoons and may be better suited for the hobbyist or
small commercial beekeeping operation.  The 9.5g container is convenient
for the larger commercial apiaries.  The preparation charts  below will
help you select the Fumidil B formula right for your needs.
 
SPRING FEEDING RECOMMENDATIONS:
 
! COLONY                1 heaping teaspoon Fumidil B;  add to  2 ounces water
(35C-50C);  add to 1 gallon sugar syrup
 
100 COLONIES            9.5G SIZE Fumidil B;  add to 1 gallon water (35C-50C);
                        add to 100 gallons sugar syrup
 
NOTE: for fall feedings, increase to 2 gallons of medicated syrup per
colony.
 
YOUR BEE SUPPLY DEALER WILL BE HAPPY TO HELP
 
 
Good luck!!
