Best Way of Winter Mite Treatment for Bees

During cold winters, most bee colonies produce less brood or have no brood. Bee mites are very weak this season. Although oxalic acid cannot penetrate honeycomb cells, it is a great aid to bee colonies during this broodless period.


The efficacy of MELOXAL oxalic acid strips can last for 4~6 weeks. A 10-frame beehive requires 4 strips as a course of treatment. This fiber strip gradually disperses the medication's effect to reach the bees congregating to combat the cold.

We also offer powdered MYTH-BEE oxalic acid. You can use the sublimation method with tools such as vaporizers and Varojet. This method kills bee mites by vaporizing the powder.


Another process is the trickling method. You need to make the oxalic acid solution as instructed. Next, utilize a syringe to administer the medication.


Use oxalic acid in winter. This not only helps lower the number of bee mites, but also helps bees gain fat and get ready for early foraging. At the same time, it speeds up the degradation of the residual pyrethroid content in beeswax.
