How to use
For the 14-day treatment, place two strips across the top bars of the brood nest and remove them after two weeks. For the 20-day treatment, apply one strip, then replace it with a second after 10 days. Keep the hive entrance fully open for ventilation, and apply when daytime temperatures are between 50 and 85 degrees F (placing it toward evening at the higher end of that range).
Warning: Wear all recommended safety equipment as indicated on the package. Store out of direct sunlight, and keep unused strips in their original container to maintain effectiveness. Follow all label safety instructions.
