Title: Disposal of Apistan strips
Post by: jester7891 on October 09, 2011, 12:37:08 PM

I have the Apistan strips in my hives now - will take them out after 6 weeks. I have a couple extra strips that I would not need until next year - don't want to keep them around. How do I dispose of these strips (used and unused) properly? Is throwing them out in the regular garbage OK?

Thanks, Jester

Never used them before but here is what I found on a quick search:
