Varroa Control and Hive Care
Apiguard, BN 04W0074, Exp 04/2026
Apiguard® is a natural treatment to control varroa mite populations in honeybee colonies. Tests show that Apiguard also helps to control tracheal mites / Acarine and chalkbrood.
Apiguard gel comes in 50g ready-to-use aluminium trays (two will treat one standard colony).
Each pack contains 10 trays.
£27.50 inc. VAT
Apiguard is extremely easy to use:
- Place the opened tray face upwards in the top of brood frames, preferably centred over the colony.
- After 10 days examine the tray and if it is almost empty, replace with a second tray. If there is product left in the tray after 10 days leave until day 14 and then replace.
- Leave the second tray in position for a further 2-4 weeks and treatment has been completed (duration of treatment therefore lasts 4-6 weeks).
Apiguard works best in temperatures above 15°C. But it is also effective at lower temperatures even though the gel takes longer to evaporate and the gel needs to be left I place for longer.
