[QUOTE="tristan, post: 12941, member: 30"] thanks for that. it highlights what i mean. no controls shown. they are comparing it to the strips and the strips are put in 8-10 weeks later. of course its better, treating earlier is always better. its comparing apples to grapefruit. whats also really interesting is its short 2 week treatment is shown as good/better as 8 week. the whole point of 8 weeks is brood cycles (for eg bayvarol is 95% effective in 24hrs but it still requires 8 weeks treatment). however when you keep mites down super low you don't get many mites emerging from the brood. but if mite levels are not low because of drift etc, then it becomes a problem. even the guy in the video "wants to see a true trail here in usa". enough said. yes. that is known to work but having to manually do it every 3-4 days is a major drawback. an auto system would be very good. but i suspect the heating requirement would be a problem.
