Composition:

Sodium salycylate, Microsulphur, Beta vulgaris extract

Indications:

Treatment and control of Foulbroud and Nosema diseases.

Principles of action:

The composition in its advantageous form contains basically two main components. The main active substance is the 2-hidroxi-benzoic acid (salicylic acid), which kills the parasite spore amoebae. The other component is the carrier substance Beta vulgaris cv altissima in concentrated fractionated watery extract (sugar-industry molasses), which contains such natural components (macro- and micro-elements, vitamins), which partly diminish the shortages caused by sugar-feeding (alimentary saccharine), so the strengthened colonies can defend themselves more effectively against diseases, thus against the nosema disease as well.

Trials show that the effect of the composition is seen 4 weeks after the treatment and furthermore according to the laboratory tests done during the following spring the colonies treated the previous autumn were free of the nosema spores which cause the infection.
