Api-Bioxal RTU “Ready-to-use” removes the math and mixing, leaving you to just treat your hives. RTU is a better version of oxalic acid dribble created without a sugar syrup base, meaning the oxalic acid will stay active in hives longer. This shelf-stable formula can be stored at room temperature for at least 1 year, even after the bottle has been opened. This is because the formula contains no sugar, which can form toxic byproducts during storage and also tempts the bees to eat the treatment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApi-Bioxal RTU has been approved by the EPA and the following states: Alabama, Arkansas, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, District of Columbia, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vermont, Washington, West Virginia, Wisconsin, Wyoming. \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/forms.gle\/KVxVAyuSU7UH1gPx9\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eClick here\u003c\/a\u003e to be notified when RTU is available in your state.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e0.5 liter (500mL) contains approximately 10 treatments.
