SWARM Swarm Attractant - Box with 10 sachets containing wipes soaked in bee swarm attractant Product approved for veterinary use, store in refrigerator
The wipes are impregnated with essential oils derived from plants, and the mixture used is the result of many years of research. The attractants have been selected to attract passing swarms or swarms exiting hives and thus prevent abandonment of the apiary. Method of use Tear the bag open slightly or pierce the bag producing an opening so that it can be hung in a convenient place(such as a tree),but better yet inside a decoy Beehive. Several decoy beehives can be arranged in the apiary at a maximum distance of 50 meters from the hives. Once the bag is opened,the wipe with the attractants is effective for about 10 days,depending on environmental conditions(if hot the substance is dissipated more quickly). The optimal height of placing the bag is 1.8 to 2 meters above the ground. When used in a decoy Beehive,the ideal is to fix it on an old and empty nest canvas. The ideal orientation of the decoy beehive is with the flight opening facing south.
Apistan is an acaricide used to kill Varroa. The active ingredient is a synthetic pyrethroid tau-fluvalinate (or sometimes ?-fluvalinate). Synthetic in this case means that it is not a natural compound, but is produced using a chemical process.
