Apistan, with specific instructions for use, is available through all major bee suppliers. During treatment with any drug or pesticide, all honey supers for human consumption MUST be removed. Dispose of waste chemicals as directed on the label instructions. Strips should never be in supers. Attach strips with staple or thumb tack.
Strips also have a tab that can be used to support itself between frames.
Though Apistan is safe, wear gloves when handling strips. Though the treatment cost is twice as great, beekeepers have reported greatly improved results if the entire treatment procedure is repeated as soon as the spring honey crop is removed.

It is always the pesticide applicator's responsibility, by law, to read and follow all current label directions for the specific pesticide being used.
