Just did a Formic treatment, this was 30 minutes later, they ended up bearding really well. Were all back in bed by the evening

After Formic was completed, I added VarroxSan strips. Current mite count on the bottom tray in the last two weeks is 1 or 2 mites every other day, will do a wash this weekend.

Thank you for the update.  
I would just do another inspection soon to check that the queen is still ok and laying eggs.
