It is as follows: 1 6.4 oz pk Terrimycin 2 1/2 lbs Crisco (any all vegitable shortning will do) 5 lbs granulated sugar Mix dry ingrediants thoroughly, then mix with Crisco. Devide into 15 equal portions and flatten into patties (About 1/4" thick. donot use during honey flow. Patties without Terramycin can be made up for use during honey flow to combat T mites. Frank Humphrey [log in to unmask]" Anybody had experience using powdered sugar instead of granulated?? Some guys in our club use it (same proportions?) and like it.
