I have a question for the forum.
Setting aside the thymol debate for the moment, there seems to be clear evidence among us that using the emulsion cords inside the hive in addition to fogging with FGMO is beneficial, and more effective than just fogging alone. Does anyone have any experience with using the emulsion cords alone, without fogging?
If the emulsion cords all by themselves provide adequate or equal mite protection, there would be an obvious saving in time and money.
Has anyone tried this?

Dr. Rodriguez was doing just that when he came up with the idea for the fogger. The idea of the fogger was to be less labor by using the cords less often. The other up side of the fogger is it kills the Tracheal Mites.
