Apifor is a powerful and versatile volatile liquid designed for the treatment of varroosis in beehives. Its key advantage is that it acts not only on adult mites but also on those located within sealed brood cells, ensuring a more comprehensive treatment. Apifor works through fumigation or vapor action and must be applied using a suitable evaporator. The dosage should be carefully adapted to the specific volume of the hive. The medicine is introduced into the hive for a minimum period of 10 days, or until complete evaporation.
For optimal effectiveness, it is recommended to maintain an external temperature between 10-30°C and to not reduce the hive's flight opening, ensuring proper ventilation throughout the treatment. Bees should have good food reserves, as they must not be fed during this period. When handling Apifor, always wear appropriate protective clothing, including chemical-resistant gloves, safety glasses, and a filtered mask.
How to Apply:
- The medicine is introduced into the hive with the aid of suitable dosators (evaporators) for a minimum period of 10 days or until complete evaporation.
- Recommended dosage per hive volume: 3.8 - 4.8ml of product for every liter of hive volume.
Hive type and volume in liters:
- Dadant-Blatt (10 frames): 60L volume
- Dadant-Blatt (10 frames) + empty super: 90L volume
- Nucleus hive (5 frames): 30L volume
- Langstroth (single body): 44L volume
