My grandfather was a beekeeper. I have a lot of friends who are beekeepers and they are all against this system. Their reasoning is that you should not harvest honey without examining the supers to see how the bees are doing, which you can't do with this system.

We used to sell a Formic Acid solution to beekeepers, it would kill the mites that they get infested with. Sadly, the bee population has been on a decline the past few years. We don't sell as much solution anymore.

Cool video, thanks for posting.
