115 volt oxalic acid vaporizer

115V Oxalic Acid Vaporizer to Treat Varroa Mites

SKU: OX115V

Designed, Manufactured, Assembled in and Ships from Colorado, USA!

 

Loads of features at a great price equals a great value! Take a look at our professional vaporizer :

  • High-reliability heating elements are designed to yield literally tens of thousands of uses - this tool will outlast you! Our business model is to sell this to you just once - and have you tell your friends about how great it is so that they buy one!
  • Dual heating elements for excellent and even heat distribution while avoiding overheating (which leads to decomposition). Our system is designed to minimize spattering and hot spots.

  • 100% complete and ready to go out of the package. 
  • 3 minute cycle time (we suggest waiting 4 minutes to be sure).

  • Compact at 16 inches long, yet reaches to the middle of the hive.

  • Durable and made of only the best materials.

  • Soldered, NOT crimped, electrical connections!

  • CNC machined aircraft aluminum bowl.

  • Very flexible, 11-foot long cord.

  • Do you have a robbing screen or other small opening to your hive and don't want to take it off for an oxalic treatment? This unit is only 2 inches wide and 3/8 inch tall. It will fit through all robbing screens we have found, most others won't!

  • Holds up to 3 grams of oxalic acid with room to spare - enough for any hive.

  • Every single unit is tested after the assembly process to ensure that it is 100% ready to go - no bad surprises when it gets to your house.

  • Symmetrical design prevents bowl from wanting to tilt sideways and dump the contents when preparing or in use.

  • The power supply has a light to let you know that the device is powered/active.

  • Our power supply is UL, FCC and RoHS listed. We use only the best.

  • Comes with a properly sized scoop for 1 gram of oxalic powder.

  • Rust proof components.

  • Pennies per use (oxalic is cheap!).
  • Varroa are less likely to generate resistance to oxalic vaporization than some other treatments.
  • Makes a great gift for the beekeeper in your life!
  • In the unlikely event that you have problems, you will be talking directly to the actual manufacturer!

 

What will you need:
  • This vaporizer and the included measuring scoop
  • Oxalic acid powder
  • PPE (personal protective equipment): goggles, gloves and respirator
  • 115V AC power source

 

Process:

  • The scoop holds 1 gram of loose (not packed) oxalic acid powder

  • A typical application: For each hive, after human consumption honey supers are removed, apply 1.5 grams per treatment, 3 treatments total, treatments exactly 7 days apart

  • Insert the vaporizer into the hive before turning it on, no need to open the hive

  • Turn the vaporizer on and time out 4 minutes. Usually, you can see the smoke vapors escape cracks during minutes 2 and 3

  • Disconnect the vaporizer power source

 

Care of Vaporizer and System:

  • Do not dunk the vaporizer bowl in water to speed cooling. That thermal shock will quickly ruin the vaporizer. Should there be a need to treat a second hive, ideally the vaporizer should be allowed to air cool until cool enough not to melt a new charge of oxalic acid. If you wish to increase the cooling speed, bury the vaporizer in dry, loose sand or gravel
