FGMO and Tracheal mites

[David R. Carlson]

If the bees can deal with breathing in the FGMO why could it not also be used as a means to apply menthol or ?? to treat for Tracheal mites?

Hi.
I have not tried your suggestion/question
mainly because we do not have tracheal mites to deal with. We assume that tracheal mites have disappeared with continued use of FGMO.
Also, I do not know if adding menthol to the Burgess propane fogger would affect the fogger and render it unusable. Why would you want to risk ruining a good piece of equipment when FGMO alone will do the job for you? Just wondering.
Best regards.
Dr. Rodriguez
