Apivar is a simple and complete control of Varroa Mites treatment in the form of a rigid polymer strip impregnated with Amitraz

Available on order. Delivery times may vary

Description

Apivar works by contact: the active ingredient is delivered continuously over the 6 to 10 week treatment period. As bees walk on the strip’s surface they pick up molecules of the active ingredient and then distribute them throughout the colony. Apivar is the only amitraz-based apiary product that treats several successive generations of varroa mites, reducing mite populations in the hive by up to 99% in 1 application.
