Anyone have any information on this newly licensed treatment?

Apparently, this uses RNA, which targets the mites not the bees. It is a radically different  kind of product and will be a great product to alternate with Formic Acid Quick Strips and Apiguard (Thymol.)  Let try it!!

I have heard it cost $12 per treatment.  The bees look like bees did prior to varroa for a significant 4 + weeks until the bees get reinfested. The product was tested by several large beekeepers in 200 perhaps lots.  Could change the way bees are kept.  Two treatments per year spring/fall apparently needed.  In addition formic pro treatment(s) maybe needed also. Expect that a lot more info will be coming in the bee journals etc.
