- Abstract
This study was carried to determine the efficacy of organic powdered sugar dusting method against to Varroa destructor parasitism in the morning and afternoon hours on April and July. This study was conducted in seven different apiaries located on the province of Hatay - Arsuz. In the each of the apiaries highly V. destructor infested ten experimental colonies and five control colonies were used as totally 105 colonies. Same treatment procedure was done to all trial groups in different months and hours of days. Fallen mites were counted before and after trials. Efficacy of powdered sugar dusting method was determined by Henderson-Tilton formula application as 39,72 % on the morning trial and 44,26 % on the afternoon trial by distinguishing the mite loads on honeybees. There is not a significant importance between two compared groups at level of p<0.05. The powdered sugar dusting can be used as a supporting and organic struggle method for Varroasis during the nectar flow periods against to residue problems and the risk of drug resistances.
