    How much of a reduction in mites did you see?  Or an overall reduction in mortality?

    Yes I have- although I skipped wintergreen and used spirmint it worked well. Use a fine

    mist and did NOT spray the queen

    Has anyone used essential oils for mite control? I have heard of wintergreen oil, are there others? Where is a good place to purchase high quality essential oils for use in hives? Has anyone tried grease patties?
