What a week at SWARM 2026 in Kutaisi, Georgia! 🇬🇪
NOD Apiary Products was proud to be a key sponsor of the inaugural conference organized by @PHIRAscience bringing international researchers and beekeeping specialists together for three days of learning focused on honey bee health.
Dr. Heather Broccard-Bell, our Principal Scientist & Global Research Manager, presented on Tropilaelaps control, featuring Formic Pro as a key tool for beekeepers. We even included a Formic Pro demo, and attendees were able to see how Tropilaelaps was killed in the brood cells by the next day.
From mite management and honey bee immune systems to new research on European foulbrood, SWARM 2026 was packed with valuable learning. What really set this event apart was the extra focus on hands-on laboratory and apiary sessions.
Thank you to PHIRA-Science, the participants and our fellow sponsors for an incredible event!

PRO TIP: Did you know, you can use Formic Pro strips to help clear away bees before application? If some bees aren`t getting the memo to move aside, put your strips in place for a moment. Any slowpokes should shuffle along, making it easy to scrape leftover Formic Pro and burr comb without damaging any bees. #Beekeeping #NODprotip #beekeepingtips #FormicPro #varroa
We are so thankful for our employees, our customers and our community. Wishing everyone a Happy Canadian Thanksgiving! #happythanksgiving #thankful
We love working with our community. The NOD R&D Team is proud to collaborate with the Centre for Natural Products at @loyalistcollege to conduct a large honey bee field research trial. This project provides an opportunity for students to get academic credit from Loyalist through hands-on, practical experience. We are delighted to work with such a competent and enthusiastic team! 🐝
It`s mid-September, and we`re making the most of these last warm days in Ontario. Honey supers are coming off, and we`re following up with two-strip treatments of Formic Pro. This time of year, the goal is simple: knock varroa levels down so your colonies can head into winter as strong and healthy as possible.
As temperatures begin to cool, remember that Formic Pro should be applied when daytime high temperatures are between 10°C and 29.5°C (50 - 85°F). Always follow the label directions and monitor mite levels post treatment to ensure you’re counts are under your regional threshold. If mite counts are still high and colony strength allows, a second treatment may be needed. Be sure to leave about one month between the first day of each treatment.
Strong colonies for next spring start with effective mite management today. 🐝
This weekend, NOD is supporting the Ontario Women’s Beekeeping Network Annual Bee Camp! The event takes place over three days and consists of beekeeping clinics, hive crafts, cuisine classes, water-sports, networking, and games!
Wishing these ladies a fun and productive weekend 🐝⛺️
Fun fact: September is Honey Month across North America! 🍯
Around this time of year, beekeepers are hard at work collecting the rewards of a season spent supporting healthy, productive colonies.
As you celebrate this year`s harvest, remember that Formic Pro™ is a residue-free varroa treatment, so you can manage varroa mites and stay confident that your honey is safe and sweet. 😋 Always refer to the product label in your country to check if you can use with honey supers or follow a zero-day withdrawal period.

Formic Pro is the easiest varroa mite treatment to open and apply in your hives. Simply grasp the fin seal—that little tab of the foil package at the end—and tear downwards. A quick and easy way to get varroa treatment right into the heart of the colony’s brood rearing zone. #healthybeeshealthyplanet #formicpro #varroa
How do you open your Formic Pro?
