Apivar 2.0

Apivar 2.0 is more effective and uses less amitraz as regular Apivar.  It reduces varroa mite infestation much faster than the original Apivar, resulting in a rapid mite drop of over 60% within the first two weeks of treatment.

Apivar 2.0 is most effective when bees show high levels of activity, making it ideal for both spring and fall treatments. There is no temperature restriction when applying Apivar 2.0 strips!

In each brood chamber, use 1 Apivar 2.0 strip per 5 frames of bees and leave the strips in place for 6 to 10 weeks. If there’s no brood, remove after 6 weeks; if brood is present, keep strips in for the full 10 weeks. Make sure to place the strips in the center of the brood, with both sides accessible to the bees. If you have short frames, such as in Langstroth hives, bend the strip over the frame using the folding line. If you have taller frames, such as in Dadant hives, use the hanging system on the top of the frame.

With Apivar 2.0, there’s no withholding period required; you can place your honey supers immediately after removing the strips, streamlining your beekeeping workflow.

Storage:

Apivar 2.0 strips can be used up to 2 years after the manufacturing date stamped on the package. Store in a cool, dry area, out of direct sunlight, and away from other pesticides, food, or feed. Once the pack is open, use the strips promptly and do not keep them for later use.

This product can not be shipped outside of the US.
