Apiguard

$50.95

Protect your colonies with Apiguard, a slow‑release thymol gel proven to deliver 85–95% efficacy, with an impressive 93% average across thousands of treatments. This natural solution supports mite control while encouraging hygienic behavior in honey bees, helping prevent a range of related issues.

Use two 50g trays per hive, spaced 14 days apart, in spring or in summer after honey flow. For best results, apply when bees are active and temperatures range between 60°F and 105°F. Place the tray gel‑side up on top of the brood frames and ensure ¼" spacing between the tray and the cover—spacer boards or empty supers may be needed. Close screened bottom boards during treatment.

Package Options:

  • 10‑pack: Ten 50g treatments in bulk gel form

  • 60‑pack tub: Sixty 50g treatments with dosing scoop, spatula, and delivery pads
