Does anyone know if apivar has any adverse effects on virgin/non laying queens?
I have 2 nucs and 3 hives, and I would like to treat all of the bees at the same time but the nucs have virgin/non laying queens right now. One of my hives has a high mite load (other 2 are ok for now) so I need to start a treatment soon.
I should also hit the nucs with OAV, since there is no capped brood right now, but they will probably pick up mites again before the season is over.
