What medicine can cure bee mites the fastest?

Bee mites refer to a type of external parasitic mite of bees. They can cause certain harm to the growth of bees, so they must be prevented and treated in a timely manner. Now there are some drugs that can be used to treat bee mites, and the effect is very good. If people have never known about it before, they may be confused and don’t know what kind of medicine to choose. Here I will introduce to people what medicine can cure bee mites the fastest.

Bee mite disease has a great harm to the growth of bees, so when preventing and controlling bee mite disease, we must pay attention to three periods, which can have a good prevention and control effect. The three time points for bee mite prevention and control are introduced as follows:

1. For anti-mite agents, aqueous solutions should be used. Smoke agents or other agents should not be used. Mite killer No. 1, Quick Mite Killer, etc. can be used, and the concentration should be mixed according to the requirements of the instructions.

2. The temperature should be suitable. Choose sunny and warm weather to spray the anti-mite agent at noon, and the outside temperature should not be lower than 10℃ so that the bees can leave the nest to defecate. Avoid treating mites in the evening to prevent losses due to bees freezing to death when leaving the nest during spraying.

3. The time for treating mites should be short. In early spring, there is a lack of nectar sources and bees are prone to stealing. Therefore, the time for treating mites should be short and the actions should be changed to prevent bee theft.

Treat mites during the late autumn offspring period. After mid-to-late October, the overwintering bees have basically left the hives. At this time, the bee mites in the beehive have been exposed on the bees' bodies. We must take advantage of this favorable opportunity to thoroughly treat the mites. The method is to extract the empty spleen, choose Mite Killer No. 1, or Speedy Mite Killer, to completely cure the mites. If some bee colonies still have brood combs, the bee mites are basically exposed on the bee bodies and can be easily treated thoroughly.

The nectar flow period has passed, and applying pesticides will not contaminate bee products.

The temperature is stable, and mite treatment has little impact on the bee colony.

Treatment of mites before the winter bee breeding period Late summer and early autumn (mid-August to early September) is the peak period for bee mite breeding. Any negligence in work will not only affect the breeding of winter bees this year, but also affect the beekeeping production of the next year.

Late summer and early autumn are the key periods for controlling bee mites. Beekeeping production is basically over at this time. We must seize the favorable opportunity, concentrate our efforts, and thoroughly control the mites to lay a good foundation for breeding high-quality overwintering bees.

Given that there are many types of bee mite drugs on the market and the quality varies greatly, beekeepers must choose the best control agent.
