Postage & Packing
Please note that single items are despatched with the P & P as specified for that item
However with multiple items we work out the cost dependant on the weight of the individual items
We use different carriers dependant on your location and the weight of the item
This pest can be treated with thymol and oxalic acid
with the rise of the pyrethroid resistant mite (now prevalent over most of the UK)
Defra (Bee Unit) no longer recommend the use of the strips - we're just breeding resistant mites when using them
Download instructions about Thymol
Download instructions about using Oxalic Acid
Please note - we do not recommend using oxalic acid vaporisers - in our opinion they are extremely dangerous because of the risk of poisoning the beekeeper. Plus we know of some beekeepers who have managed to set fire to their hives killing all the varroa but also all their bees!
