But, why are you still only discussing the application and application
methods of chemicals?
You guys seem to refuse to think about and discus here the cleaner
ways, with possibly the application of drone removal schemes and
small cell beekeeping.

Your attitude as observed by me is:
It can only be any good and we will only try and use it if it comes
from a chemical plant.
A bit like:
If we don't come back from a doctor visit without a pot of pills,
the whole visit must have been useless.

Why are you so desperately supporting the chemical industry?
So I repeat myself by advising: don't grab that bottle with acid
where drone removal schemes and small cell beekeeping can do
the same for you.

With all the substances available so far and gained experience with
them we know that we are not going to really win from the Varroa
mite, no method or chemical has ever succeeded to get rid of the
mites while at the same time keep our propolis, honey, wax, pollen
and bees healthy, so at least take the cleanest alternatives available!

Worth discussing?
