>What I also find of great interest is that there were only two significant
miticide treatments given over the course of a year, which implies to me
that the operation operates with mite levels higher than I would consider to
be "safe" for much of the year.
They mention amitraz on one of the treatments, but they do not mention which
miticide they use for the other 3 treatments.
They cure 4 times a year:
"(1) anti-mite treatment April 2009, just prior re-queening – amitraz;
(5) anti-mite treatment September 12, 2009, after harvesting honey;!
żAmitraz again?
" (6) anti-mite treatment – early November and early December 2009 -
essential oils from lemon grass and spearmint (Honey-B-Healthy™)."
I do not think the HbH is given as a miticide, or it is?
