Regarding the OA drip method, Bill Truesdell wrote, " It would be nice to see it registered in the US and Canada." OA IS registered in Canada, late June or early July this year. There was a lot of news at EAS two weeks ago. I suspect OA will usurp Formic very quickly if/when registered in the US (and probably even if not). ABF is pushing for EPA approval based on Canadian research. I was pushing ABF to adopt such a stance in Jacksonville based on European reasearch. Problem is, EPA registeres a product, not a treatment. Hence Formic Acid Pads from NOD Industries finally got EPA approval, whereas formic acid treatment is still not sanctioned. Use of the NOD product is approved, formic acid is not. An OA product may get approved, but I'm doubtful OA approval will come to the states quickly.
