Hi all,  
I’m a beekeeper in NSW who has recently gotten a heavy varroa mite infestation. Thus, I am planning to treat my hive with Bayvarol strips. I am aware that they can be used with honey supers on but I am unsure if they will contaminate the plastic of the flow frames. Does anyone know if they can be used with flow frames?  
Thank you!
