As you can see from yesterday's post I have been doing my late July/early August mite treatments. Remember most mite treatments require the honey supers be removed first. Formic acid treatments (MAQS or FormicPro) are the exception, but they do requirements that temperatures be less than 92F. The next few weeks looking to be acceptable.

By the way the "formic" swarm in yesterday's photo still has not re-entered the hive.
I have also noticed the flight activity from my hives has slowed considerably. This is probably do to a lessened availability of nectar.
