All castes of honey bees including, Queen bees tolerate Thymovar well. The product is easy to apply and gives long-term protection against Varroa mite re-infestation. Thymovar is best used directly after the honey harvest.
For use on Nucleus, Single and Double Brood Chamber colonies with low to moderate numbers of Varroa.
