Mellonex

MELLONEX is used for the control of the young wax moth (Galleria mellonella). MELLONEX consists of granules which contain the active substance Bacillus thuringiensis var. aizawai. It is harmless for the bees.

Shortly after consumption of the treated combs, the wax moth larvae stops feeding and dies soon thereafter. Small larvae are more susceptible than bigger larvae, therefore, it is advisable to treat during early stages of infestations.
MELLONEX leaves no residues in honey and combs.

The taste of honey does not change.

 

Application and Dosage

MELLONEX is dissolved in water and then sprayed on both sides of the combs. Only one treatment is needed per season.
7. 5 ml MELLONEX -granulate (2 measuring spoons) are dissolved in 100 ml water. Depending on the comb 15 - 30 ml of the solution is needed.
