Oxalic Acid & Glycerin Slow-Release Strips

Oxalic acid is an active ingredient used in certain authorized varroa mite treatments for honey bee colonies.

Glycerin is a liquid ingredient commonly associated with slow-release strip formulations.

Slow-release strip approaches are intended to provide extended exposure to an active ingredient rather than a single short-duration application.

However, the effectiveness, safety, permitted formulation, and treatment duration of any particular preparation depend on its specific composition, testing, and regulatory authorization.

This kit should not be interpreted as an approved or registered varroa treatment solely because it contains oxalic acid and glycerin.

Designed for Beekeeping Supply Organization

The kit provides a convenient way to obtain related supplies together, including:

• Oxalic acid and glycerin ingredients.

• Cardboard strip materials.

• Containers for appropriate preparation activities.

• Resealable bags.

• Temperature-measuring equipment.

• An instructional video resource.

The included quantities are described as sufficient for preparing up to 160 strips according to the kit supplier's formulation. This is a materials-capacity statement, not a guarantee of treatment efficacy or authorization.

Important Canadian Regulatory Information

In Canada, products used to control varroa mites in honey bee colonies are subject to applicable regulatory requirements.

Before using any homemade oxalic acid and glycerin formulation in a hive, confirm whether that specific preparation and application method are authorized.

An instructional video or recipe does not replace a registered product label or regulatory approval.

For beekeepers seeking an approved treatment option, consult the current Health Canada product information and your provincial apiarist.

Chemical Handling & Safety

Oxalic acid can cause serious injury through improper handling or exposure.

• Read the safety data sheets for oxalic acid and glycerin before handling.

• Wear appropriate chemical-resistant gloves, eye protection, and other required protective equipment.

• Avoid inhaling dust or exposing skin and eyes to oxalic acid.

• Do not prepare or apply an unapproved varroa treatment formulation.

• Keep ingredients clearly labelled and in suitable original containers.

• Keep chemicals away from children, pets, food, and animal feed.

• Follow all applicable storage, handling, spill-response, and disposal requirements.

• Do not assume that the included containers or bags are suitable for transporting or storing prepared chemical mixtures without confirming compatibility.

• Beekeepers purchasing oxalic acid and glycerin-related supplies together.
