Hello i have been looking to buy a fogger to use to fog my hives with this year for mites. Where are the best place to buy one i am new to this kind of treatment but i hear that using a fogger will kill alot of mites and will not bother the queen from laying and the food grade mineral oil will kill mites on contact the way i was told you just puff the fog into the entrance of the hive and it goes all over the hive and will kill mites.

Hey Tom,
I got mine at home depot. They are black and decker, those are about the only ones you can get now. It is the same as burgess last year as they combined. We have been doing the fogging for about 1 yr and have had good success. I checked the girls this weekend and all seemed strong. Ihave a watering hole on my back deck and the bees flock to it when the weather is warm so I get an upclose and personal look. So far so good no mites seen and no deformed wings. We'll see how it goes!!

Good luck!

You may want to try "Tractor Supply" that is where I purchased mine. I am also planning on using the emulsion soaked cords this year along with the fogging.

Good Luck,
