Treatment Tracking & Efficacy Guide

The Treatments page helps you track every mite treatment across your operation, grade their effectiveness, and plan rotations to prevent resistance.

Logging a treatment:

Select the hive(s) being treated

Choose the treatment product and chemical class

Enter application date and expected removal date

After treatment, log your post-treatment mite count

Efficacy grading:

Grade A (90%+ reduction): Excellent — treatment worked as expected

Grade B (70-89%): Good — acceptable, continue monitoring

Grade C (40-69%): Below target — review application technique and conditions

Grade D (below 40%): Poor — possible resistance, change chemical class next round

Rotation strategy:

Rotate between at least 2-3 different chemical classes per year to slow resistance development. The dashboard tracks which classes you have used recently and flags if you are over-relying on one mode of action.

Important: Always follow product label instructions for application method, dosage, temperature requirements, and timing relative to honey supers.
