Apiguard (Pack of 10) beekeeper [deluxe hardcover 298 pages]Apiguard is one of two soft treatments we recommend for fall treatment for Varroa Mites. The active ingredient is Thymol* (Oil of Thyme) and it does an excellent job of knocking down mites, especially in the fall. Treatment is convenient: add one tray above the top bars (using a shim or empty super for spacing,) after 14 days pull out the empty tray and add another for a second 14 days. Apply when daytime temperatures are between 60 and 100 degrees
