Great to see your journey, Chris. A small tote or basin works well for shaking the bees into for scooping into the test cup. I've been waiting for cooler temps here in PA, which have finally arrived, so I'll be treating with Formic Pro, and will follow up later in the fall with a few rounds of OXA.
Great idea about the tote! Much better than shaking the way I did I guess 😀 It's too hot here for anything except Apivar, I've been told. I'll be treating these bees in the next video. Or the next-next 😁
Scary to think, so many!
Luckily it's only one hive, and it has historically been strong. I treated the hive in an upcoming video.
