SPECIAL WARNINGS FOR EACH TARGET SPECIES
All colonies located on the same apiary should be treated
simultaneously.
The product should be used as part of an integrated varroa control
programme.
As an effective method to reduce the risk of resistance selection

Instead, strict rotation
with products containing active substances from other chemical classes

applied. Depending on the regional resistance situation a longer
treatment break than

class they are not suitable for rotation with each other.
Inappropriate use of the product could result in an increased risk of
resistance
development and could ultimately result in ineffective therapy and
colony losses.
In general, it is recommended to test acaricide susceptibility at a
regional level, e.g.
by bioassays or molecular analysis (PCR). In the case of existing
resistance to
pyrethroids PolyVar Yellow should not be applied. Where resistance to
pyrethroids
has been seen in the pas
