  • In this video, We continue to treat our colonies with Apiguard, a Thymol based product for Varroa control. We have used this product in the past numerous times and had good success. It is not without issues as with any mite treatment. We also continue to feed thin sucrose syrup and pollen supplement.

      Thank you. Its been a year for the books for sure. Great summer season, Deployment, have not been back home long and have been keeping family a priority. We did take our share of losses while I was away, but we can recover.

    You guys are always working hard, it's great to see your kids working with you. I can't get my daughters to help much. I only had to feed 1 light colony so far this summer. They seem to always be bringing in some nectar and I swear I saw goldenrod blooming today here in NJ. I would hate to have to feed during the summer. I leave some spring honey on for summer but feed heavy in the fall. Sugar prices are going to hurt all beekeers this fall! Good luck with your bees.

      Thanks brother. Its been a minute since I have been able to do much beekeeping or youtube. Been Serving out of the Country for a while. I hope you and yours are well, We had a good summer flow, but took our share of losses with me gone. We can recover though. Stay safe my friend.

    Hi Craig I have been missing your videos, I'm up north in ohio so I spend my winter evening hours trying to learn and prepare for next beekeeping season. I hope you guys had a productive summer and are doing ok?

      Sorry for the delayed response, I have been out of the country for a while. We had a productive summer and made some honey, We also took our share of losses with me being away, but we can recover. Thanks for watching and hope you overwinter well.

    I've never used apiguard (only OA and Apivar) any pros and cons you could share? (Effectiveness for example)

    • @thesidelinebeekeeper-craig6924
      @thesidelinebeekeeper-craig6924  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Sorry for the delayed response. I have been out of the country. The pros are apiguard works well, but it is temperature sensitive and in the heat it must be used with care and with multiple treatments. OAV works well but it takes a larger than approved dose. It also will not kill any mites under the capping's. We use both in our IPM strategy, but usually only use oav on broodless splits and in winter.
