There are three main advantages using ApiLife Var to naturally control your varroa mite infestation:
- Presents a reduced dosage of thymol in each application, which decreases side effects and winter mortality, without a loss of efficacy.
- Api Life Var allows a best release of thymol per contact in addition to evaporation. As result, the efficacy is improved by a better release of active ingredients.
- With Api Life Var, there is no need for extra space to install the treatment on top on the frames!
