10 x  Apivar Strips

The rigid Apivar^® strips release just the right amount of active substance where it is needed, when it is needed.
The manufacturing process used to produce these strips guarantees that just the right amount of active miticide, Amitraz, is released when and where it is needed.  Slow-release  Apivar^® treatment contains just the right amount of product to eliminate varroa mites without any risk of toxicity for the bees or any danger of residues accumulating in hive products.  The active substance is released simply when the bees come into contact with the strip.

Thanks to the progressive and measured release of the active substance from the unique Apivar^®formulation, your hive is healthy and its products are free from contamination.

Moreover after successive Apivar^® treatments for several years, no accumulation of Amitraz residues can be noticed even in wax.

Wasps are significant pests for bees and can be very devastating in some areas. Our answer to this problem is to remove the pest without the use of harmful chemicals and without endangering the bees and the environment. To bait, simply place a small piece of raw fish in the trap. It is best if it is starting to go off, and is giving off a strong odour!

Wasps enter the internal cone and are unable to escape.

This trap is a great lure for wasps and will greatly help to keep them away from beehives or your house in the Autumn.

Tip! Don't forget to use these traps early in Spring to catch all the Queen Wasps when they come out of hibernation and are looking for protein when they establish their new nests.

Great trade, simple easy and a great product. Recommended. - Peter B

Apiguard Thymol Gel.  Price is per 50g tray.

Use one tray per hive per application.

Full instructions are included with each dispatch.

For efficient Varroa Mite control in beehives when using Oxalic Acid for treatment.

For full depth brood boxes. 3/4 depth versions also available.

 Oxalic acid treatments do not usually kill the mites that are inside capped brood cells. There is now a very efficient and effective solution!

Lock the queen in this cage to create a brood break period. Treat the hive with Oxalic Acid while there is no capped brood and achieve a very high Varroa kill rate.

Oxalic acid can be applied by vaporization, fogging or by the dribble method.

Due to its large size the bees don’t feel queenless and are less likely to build queen cells. It has queen excluder sides so that nurse bees can still enter the cage and care for the queen.

There is a large opening under the top cap to release the bees when required. Only 25mm wide at the top and will fit in a standard brood box along with 10 frames with 33mm end bars. The main body of the frame is only 16mm wide so as not to interfere with brood emerging alongside.

The bottom edge is curved on the full depth cage to match the typical shape of the winter cluster.

There are many other applications.

In warmer locations, the queen can be locked up over winter to stop her laying eggs to conserve stores and to stop the Varroa mites from breeding.

Can also be used to “bank” an extra queen over winter when running 2 queen colonies and the bees are already familiar with 2 queens in the hive.

The top bar is 480mm long. Cage height is 228mm for full depth brood boxes and 175mm high for 3/4 depth.

Top quality product made in Europe from food grade polypropylene.

Anti-wasp plate for Technoset floors.

This black plastic sheet slots perfectly on to a Technoset floor. It reduces the entrance to a small square hole right close to the cluster during winter. This stops wasps as they don’t like the dark tunnel from the front entrance to the inside entrance. It also makes it easier for the bees to defend themselves.

Ant Control Granules.

Biforce. Packed in 500g & 5kg containers.

For applications around beehives, sprinkle 2 teaspoons of granules in the grass under the beehive base.           

Caution. This product is toxic to bees, if they come into direct contact with it.

For best results near beehives, it is highly recommended to carry out the following procedure:-

1. Sprinkle the granules onto the grass where the beehive will be placed.
2. Cover the granules with some old scrap woolen carpet, or weed matting.
3. Place the beehive over top of the carpet or weed mat.

The Ants like the security of hiding under the carpet but don't last long due to contact with the granules. The bees are kept safe!

For general applications, sprinkle around high infestation areas. Read product label for more specific information.
