Thanks for making this video. I have been using this product for 20 years. I did a presentation that included using Certan and Xentari. Sometimes, folks understand visually better. Thanks again buddy.
Thanks for sharing that info with me. I haven’t been beekeeping that long (lol) and always appreciate the advice of those more experienced than myself!!!
I’m trying Certan for the first time this year. I’ve seen trials with other types of BT, and they didn’t go too well. I’m going to give it a go anyhow since para moth( I used the cakes from Walmart) is getting very expensive in our great economy. Only issue that is worrying me about the BT is that it kills chewing insects. What that means is they need to start chewing to ingest and the die. So far, so good in the combs I treated (I only tried 15 or so). Two weeks and no chewing. I still have some para-dichlorobenzene cakes left, and I’ll use them as well. I don’t lose much comb, if any using them. Store about 150 frames on average every year. If this certan pans out, it’ll be a game changer for me. Keep us up to date Ashby and take care my friend!!
Good to know! I hate I missed you at the conference. We were only able to attend one day. I’ll definitely make a follow up video in a few weeks to see how the product worked.

It is the same product. I stacked my deeps crisscrossed eight boxes high.

How long does it last after spraying, before wax moths & larvae appear again?
Not an expert but it’s my understanding you only need one application. I could be wrong
Where did you get the large container od B402
