How and when to use Formic Pro

Formic Pro (formerly known as Mite Away Quick Strips) is my favorite, go-to treatment for mites in the Summer and early Fall. It does not affect honey on the hive and kills mites even in capped brood (where 60-85% of mite are to be found) but this is a very strong treatment and must be used with care. Here are some of the ways to avoid possible problems.
