Remove Mites Naturally with HopGuard

Today, we will talk about HopGuard. HopGuard is derived from beta acids sourced from the hops plant, providing a natural solution to the issue. HopGuard can be applied even when honey supers are present. To apply the strips, remove them from their packaging and carefully place them between the frames. The bees do not like it and will remove the strips from the colony. In doing so, they inadvertently collect the beta acids, which eventually get transferred to the mites, leading to their elimination. HopGuard offers an excellent natural alternative for individuals who lean towards avoiding chemical-based treatments.

How long can you leave them in the hive and what happens when you leave them longer

[@mannlake]

The strips are saturated in liquid when you place them in the hive and may be left in the hive longer than the treatment period of 14 days. They dry out over time, and once dry they are no longer effective in killing mites. The bees will start to chew on the cardboard strips as well.
