APIVAR ENVELOPE 10 STRIPS

Apivar envelope 10 strips anti Varroa

Amitraz active principle

Conventional Varroa treatment

Apivar is a registered veterinary drug based on amitraz in strip form.

It is indicated for the prevention and treatment of Varroa (Varroa jacobsoni or Varroa destructor) in the hives.

How Apivar acts

Amitraz acts as an acaricide by contact. It inhibits neuronal transmission causing neurotoxicity. The parasite is paralyzed and eliminated naturally by gravity in the environment. Apivar is therefore indicated for the prevention and treatment of bee varroasis (Varroa jacobsoni or Varroa destructor).

How to use Apivar

Use 2 strips of Apivar per hive, placing them between the 3/4 frame and the 7/8 frame.

For how long to use Apivar

Leave the strips inside the hive for at least 42 days and remove for disposal. If the strips are removed from the hive, they should be repositioned and left in the hive for 14 days before removal.

Strips should be removed after a maximum of 56 days.
Do not reuse strips.

When to use Apivar

In spring before the period in which the bees collect the nectar and in autumn after the removal of the supers. 

Treat all colonies of an apiary simultaneously.
