Formic Pro - Organic Varroa Control - Treats x2 Hives

Formic Pro (previously MAQS+) is a formic acid gel strip wrapped in a vapour releasing wick, developed for Varroa treatment and control. Strips are placed in the brood rearing zone of a hive and causes mortality / infertility of the varroa mite both on bees and under the brood cap.

The backbone of this easy-to-use strip is a film made of BASF’s biodegradable plastic ecoflex®, a key component of the wick which surrounds the formic acid and saccharide (plant sugar) formulation. The ecoflex® and the bees control the release of the formic vapours into the hive, causing mortality to all life stages of both the female and the male varroa mite. During treatment ambient temperatures should range from 10 - 29.5c. The gel strips do not need to be removed from the hive after the treatment period, any remaining debris can be simply scraped from the top bars.
