The muzzle prevents the hornets from directly approaching the flight hole. Most bees are attacked by the hornets at the flight hole, making them easy victims. Experience shows that the hornet has to sit down first after passing through the muzzle before it can enter.Behind the grid, the bees can get to the flight hole from above. We recommend additional protection with entrance block.The muzzle should be attached to the hive in front of the flight hole with a strap (not included) and remain there from the end of August to about mid/end of November (depending on the weather).It is essential that the Varroa slider remains inserted, so that the hornets do not disturb the colony from below.The entrance block inserted from above should only be used after a few days. Once the bees get used to flying in from above, the flight hole can be narrowed with it.Additionally required: Zander Liebig entrance block against Asian Hornet, Item no. XXXWeight: 1.15 kg

*New packaging – same product*APIINVERT® is a liquid bee feed of the highest purity, composed exclusively of sucrose and its components fructose and glucose. APIINVERT® thus does not contain sugars that are intestine-distressing. The high proportion of fructose keeps the tendency to crystallize in the honeycomb low even at low temperatures – starvation of the bees on a full honeycomb can thus be almost completely ruled out. Advantages at a glance: • ready for use without adding water • high fructose content, ideal consistency • best feed utilization due to high dry matter content • fast feed storage thanks to bee-friendly composition • microbiologically stable and long-lasting • also suitable for use in existing feeding dishes Feed value: 1 litre APIINVERT® corresponds to 1 kg crystalline sugar, 1 kg APIINVERT® equals 0.73 kg crystalline sugar Weight: 28 kg Note: A maximum of 6 boxes can be ordered via the online shop. Larger quantities are available on request.

OPTION 1: Dripping application in fall/winterRequirements: brood-free colony, temperatures above 4 °C, single treatmentSugar (sucrose) is required, which is also used for feeding the bees, for example.Preparation of the ready-to-use 3.5% (m/V) oxalic acid dihydrate sugar solution:1. Heat the container with the oxalic acid dihydrate solution in a lukewarm water bath (30–35 °C) and then remove it from the water bath.2. Open the sealed container, weigh out the required amount of sugar and add it to the container:• 222 g sugar when using the 500 ml bottle• 443 g sugar when using the 1 l bottle3. Close the bottle tightly and shake vigorously until the sugar is completely dissolved.4. Fill a syringe (or Dosa Laif bottle) with the required amount (maximum 50 ml per hive).6. Drizzle the lukewarm solution from above onto the bees between the frames.Dosage for drip application• Small hives: 30 ml (e.g., German Standard, National, WBC, Zander-Dadant frame)• Medium hives: 40 ml (e.g., Commercial, Langstroth, and Swiss hives)• Large hives: 50 ml (e.g., Dadant, Swiss hive)OPTION 2: Spray application in fall/winter or spring/summerFall/winter: Spray application once on brood-free colonies at temperatures above 4 °CSpring/summer: Spray application on swarms or during colony formation when there is no flight activityPreparation of the ready-to-use 3.0% (m/V) oxalic acid dihydrate spray solution:1. Open the sealed container and add drinking water with a hardness of I (0–7 °dH) or distilled water:• 200 ml water when using the 500 ml bottle• 400 ml water when using the 1 l bottle2. Close the container and shake well.3. Screw on a spray head. 4. Depending on the type of hive, spray 2–4 ml per honeycomb side occupied by bees.Dosage for spray application• Small hives: 20 ml (e.g., German Standard, National, WBC, Zander-Dadant frame)• Medium hives: 25 ml (e.g., Commercial, Langstroth and Swiss hives)• Large hives: 30 ml (e.g., Dadant, Swiss box)-----Mechanism of action• Sensitivity of mites to acidic pH• Osmosis: the oxalic acid dihydrate solution/sugar mixture penetrates via suction cups on the mite's feet• Systemic variant: the bee ingests the oxalic acid dihydrate solution orally until the hemolymph becomes lethal to the mite when sucked (the bee remains unharmed)• Diffusion: the oxalic acid dihydrate solution penetrates the cuticle of the mite, producing lethal calcium oxalate in the body• Increased toxicity of oxalic acid with sucrose• Oxalic acid becomes more hygroscopic when combined with sucrose• Better adhesion to the bee with sucrose• Greater oxalic acid exposure for the mites-----Precautions for users• Avoid contact with oxalic acid and inhalation of the spray mist, as the veterinary medicinal product irritates the skin, eyes, and mucous membranes.• Wear protective equipment when using oxalic acid: clothing that covers the body, safety goggles, chemical-resistant protective gloves, and a respirator (FFP2).• Ready-to-use oxalic acid dihydrate sugar solution may be attractive to children in particular due to its sugar content. Ensure that children do not have access to the product or the ready-to-use solution at any time.• In case of accidental contact/ingestion: rinse mouth with water and drink plenty of fluids, do not induce vomiting, wash skin immediately with plenty of soap and water and rinse well, rinse eyes immediately with plenty of clean, running water for 10 minutes, consult a doctor if irritation of the skin, eyes or respiratory tract persists.
