Treatment Application Devices

Fight Varroa with the New Fogger by ANEL!
The new fogger by ANEL is the faster and most effective way to apply treatments!
The active substance in the form of fog can penetrate all the parts of hive ensuring the best application as well as the least residues left.
The duration of application needed is only around 4 seconds in each hive which means this is by far the fastest way than any other method used for treating beehives.
See it in action in the video tab!
Its' advantages are:
- No need for electrical power since it runs on gas (butane/propane bottle)
- Lightweight and small in size
- Easy to use (always with the appropriate mask)
- Reusable
- Uses simple means to create fog (glycerin, mineral oil or other organic oil like olive oil)
- Utilizes the active substance in its maximum
- Incomparable penetration
Due to the fact that chemical fog is released the use of an appropriate mask is strongly advised!
The use of the fogger must be done by responsible persons due to the gas bottle that it uses.

80% Butane & 20% Propane
220gr butane/propane

80% Butane & 20% Propane

Steps

 

1.       The FAM DISPENSER device is another effective option for treating Varroa.
2.       Follow the usage instructions carefully. Open the device's lid and soak the cloth with the formic acid solution you have prepared.
3.       Close the lid securely and transport it to your apiary to be placed on the hive.
4.       Treatment is performed after honey harvesting.
5.       Adjust the disc opening based on the ambient temperature, following the instructions included in the package.
6.       If the weather forecast predicts storms, postpone the treatment.
7.       Place the device upside down, directly above the brood area.
8.       In case of extreme temperature changes, easily readjust the device.
9.       Depending on the season, the application may last from 7-14 days.
10.    For optimal hive ventilation, open the air vents.

INFO

 

1.       Easy to use and adjust.
2.       Avoid installing the device during midday hours with high temperatures.
3.       Formic acid vapors act quickly on Varroa and within the sealed brood.
4.       Varroa mite drop peaks on the 2nd and 3rd day.
5.       Incorrect use of formic acid may lead to brood disruption.
6.       Vapors can cause fatal damage to the brood and bees.
7.       Occasional loss of the queen has been observed with treatment at high temperatures.
8.       Since formic acid is soluble in water, it may leave residues in honey upon examination.
9.       Avoid feeding during treatment to prevent robbing, as hive entrances are open.
10.    Ensure your safety by using protective glasses and clothing when handling formic acid substances.
11.    Do not wash the device at temperatures above 40°C, as it will be damaged.
12.    After treatment, the cloth may be wet due to the hive's normal humidity.
13.    Close hive entrances with sealed bottoms.
14.    Ensure good hive ventilation.

The original VAROX device. Excellent way of applying oxalic acid. Warms a resistor which evaporates the oxalic acid. You will need a 12 V battery (like these used in cars). We supply oxalic acid dihydrate (ref.OA60550) suitable for use in VAROX device.
