The high on Saturday is supposed to be 40 degrees. If you haven't treated your hive with Oxalic Acid, this may be your last opportunity to do it.
Purchasing the right Oxalic Acid is imperative. Liquid Oxalic Acid is the wrong product to use. The proper Oxalic Acid to use is a white powder.
Mixing the proper dose of Oxalic Acid powder with sugar water gives you the solution to treat your colonies.
Nature's Nectar LLC does have the proper Oxalic Acid for the last mite treatment of the year.
The road construction is pretty much over with on Hadley Ave. The access to Nature's Nectar LLC is now directly open off of Hwy. 36.
