The beauty of vaporization is that there is no need to open the hive to treat and no strips or pads to install and remove. Simple, easy and effective. Comes with complete instructions.
Requires a 12 V car battery or a deep cycle battery for operation and safety equipment such as a respirator, gloves, and safety glasses.
Instructions:
- Load the cup of the vaporizer with one gram (per brood chamber) of oxalic acid, and carefully insert it into the hive.
- Seal the hive entrance using a foam strip or rags to ensure proper containment of the oxalic acid vapors.
- Connect the leads of the vaporizer to a 12 V car battery or a deep cycle battery for precisely 2-1/2 minutes.
- After the vaporization process, leave the vaporizer in place for an additional 2 minutes to allow the vapors to thoroughly distribute within the hive.
- Carefully remove the vaporizer, and you can proceed to the next hive.
Note: Keep the hive sealed for an additional 10 minutes after removing the vaporizer to allow the oxalic acid vapors to fully disperse and take effect.
Please adhere to safety precautions and guidelines when using oxalic acid for beekeeping.
