  • a hydroalcoholic solution comprising an extract of Quassia amara was prepared as follows. 2 kg of branches of the Quassia amara tree were weighed. The dry branches were cut into pieces approximately 10 cm long and 2 cm wide and placed in a container. 4 litres of 95 %v/v ethanol were added (i.e. 500 mg of plant material to 1 ml of liquid, 500 mg/ml). After 30 hours resting at room temperature, the resulting hydroalcoholic solution comprising a Quassia amara extract was filtered and stored in the dark. A hydroalcoholic solution using isopropyl alcohol instead of ethanol has also been produced and successfully tested.
  • the hydroalcoholic solution comprising a Quassia amara extract was then diluted for testing.
  • An aqueous sugar solution was prepared by mixing 1 kg of sugar per 1 litre of warm water, and then allowing the solution to cool. 50 ml of the hydroalcoholic solution comprising a Quassia amara extract was then mixed with 950 ml of the sugar solution to get a volume of 1000 ml (i.e. a dilution to 25 mg/ml).
  • the strength of a beehive can be estimated by a subjective method that relies on visual estimates of various parameters. This method is less accurate than a quantitative mode, but is far less disruptive to the bees. It allows the investigator to preserve the social cohesion and health of tested colonies, and even collect data on variables that determine the status quo of the colony.
  • the hive was opened and the hydroalcoholic dilution of Quassia amara mixed with the sugar solution was sprayed directly onto the bees moving in the spaces between the frames.
  • the strength of the hive was taken into account in applying the composition. If the hive was weak, the amount of composition used was reduced.
  • the composition was applied to all frames with bees, using between 60 and 80 ml of the composition per hive. Given that any Varroa mites in the capped brood cells of the hive are not affected by the composition sprayed into the spaces between the frames, the procedure was repeated 4 times at intervals of 4 days in order to kill any hatched mites. Thus, the complete process per hive consisted of four applications.
  • the observed characteristics of strength estimation for the seven beehives tested are shown in Table 3 below.
  • the observed characteristics were codified using the Likert scale (assigned values in brackets in Table 2).
  • the codification permits a correlation analysis with the results of varroosis.
  • the strength values for the hives varied from 13 to 21 , 21 being the strongest hive.
  • Table 4 below shows the estimated quantity of bees on the frames according to parameters from Delaplane et al (2013).
  • Table 5 shows the Infestation Rate (IR %) of adult bees in the seven beehives before and after application of the composition (i.e. comprising the hydroalcoholic solution comprising a Quassia amara extract and the sugar solution).
  • Beehives 1 , 3 and 7 showed a significant decrease in the infestation of mites in adult bees.
  • Beehives 2, 5 and 6 maintained a low IR (we observed a difference of only one or two mites in the samples).
  • the only beehive that demonstrated a higher IR after applying the composition was beehive number 4.
  • Aethina tumida the Small Hive Beetle, another beekeeping pest.
  • the conditions of the wooden material were severe, so the increase in this beehive with Varroa mites is believed to have been influenced by these factors.
  • the aqueous solution comprising a Quassia amara extract was then diluted for testing.
  • An aqueous sugar solution was prepared by mixing 1 kg of sugar per 1 litre of warm water, and then allowing the solution to cool. 1 litre of the aqueous solution comprising an extract of Quassia amara was then mixed with 3 litres of the sugar solution to get a volume of 4 litres.
  • the effectiveness of the composition being tested is determined by the absolute decrease of Varroa mites in the brood cells of the worker bees. This is shown for the composition comprising the hydroalcoholic solution for the seven hives tested in Table 6 below. It is particularly notable that the extent of Varroa invasion in hive number 7 decreased to zero. This means that the reproductive phase of the Varroa mite was significantly interrupted.
  • Figure 6 shows the correlation between beehive strength and the reduction of IR of varroosis.
  • a means of assessing the strength of each beehive was utilised as described above. The lowest possible result using this method was 8 points and maximum was 22 points. In the In-vivo testing the range was from 13 to 21 points.
  • a higher reduction of IR was observed in the weaker hives (numbers 1 and 3) and in the hive with the higher IR at the beginning of the survey (beehive number 7). This is a positive feature of the product, because high infested and weak colonies need the most help to control varroosis.
  • the hives with a low level of infestation maintained their IR in a range of +/-0.5%.
  • a formulation which is applied by spraying also disclosed herein is a formulation which is applied to the hive by evaporation.
  • a sponge is soaked with the formulation, which is then placed in the hive and the formulation is allowed to evaporate and thereby disperse through the hive.
  • the evaporation formulation comprises more alcohol.
  • the evaporation formulation comprises a vegetable oil (e.g. olive oil), generally instead of the aqueous sucrose solution.
  • the acaricidal effectiveness of the evaporation method using Quassia amara extract was determined by In-vitro testing as follows. Small sponges with different concentrations of the composition were put on the gauzes of the prepared Petri dishes (each containing five mites). The prepared dishes were kept in the dark at an ambient temperature of about 32 °C without ventilation. The test emulsion ( ⁇ 50ml) was a 15% by volume emulsion of a hydroalcoholic extract of Quassia amara (prepared substantially as described below, but to provide two different concentrations, 100 mg/ml and 200 mg/ml) with olive oil: 42.5 ml extract - 7.5ml olive oil - 15 drops emulsifier.
  • Group 2 Hydroalcoholic extract (200 mg/ml)
  • the control group comprises five Petri dishes each containing five Varroa destructor mites without any added substance.
  • two Petri dishes were prepared with pure ethanol applied to a sponge placed upon the gauze that covered each of the Petri dishes (each dish containing five Varroa destructor mites). Thus, there was a total of 35 control mites.
  • the aim of this testing is to determine the effectiveness of Quassia amara formulation as a bio-acaricide to control varroosis in which the formulation does not have direct contact with the bees (as would be the case if using a spraying or dribbling method).
  • the results set out the number of the dead mites, as well as the percentage of the mortality of the mites, during the evaluation of the different concentrations used in the emulsion of the hydroalcoholic extract of Quassia amara with olive oil.
  • the results are set out in graphical form.
  • the absolute number of dead Varroa mites is shown in Figures 7 and 8.
  • the relative mortality of Varroa destructor mites is shown in Figure 9.
  • Post-hoc testing by HSD Tukey test for pairwise comparison is shown in Table 7 below.
  • sponges were impregnated with the emulsion of the hydroalcoholic extract of Quassia amara.
  • the sponges (made of 70 wt% cellulose and 30 wt% cotton) were divided into two parts of the same size. These parts were then moistened with water and squeezed to remove excess water.
  • the preparation of the emulsion was based on the results of the In-vitro testing.
  • Rimulgan was used as the emulsifier, although an alternative emulsifier may be used.
  • the In-vivo test was carried out with 16 hives, using the composition on eight of them and leaving another eight hives as a control group (i.e. without use of the composition). For each hive, two sponges were used (one sponge divided in 2 parts); the prepared emulsion (400 ml) was poured onto the 16 cut sponges. The In- vivo testing in the beehives was then carried out using these sponges.
  • the In-vivo test started with the sampling of adult bees to determine the infestation rate (IR) of varroosis in the 16 selected beehives located in two apiaries. At the same time, two impregnated sponges were placed into the brood chamber of eight of the 16 beehives. This was repeated for two further weeks, with an interval of one week between each use of the composition. One week after the last use, another sampling was carried out to determine IR post-use. After a further week, the hives were checked and their behaviour analysed to determine the tolerability to the composition.
  • IR infestation rate
  • the aim of the testing is to determine the effectiveness of Quassia amara as a bio-acaricide to control varroosis utilising an application method that is minimally invasive for the bees and is less time-consuming for the beekeeper.
  • the procedure involves placing sponges impregnated with an emulsion of the hydroalcoholic extract of Quassia amara with olive oil in the hive. This was repeated once a week for three weeks. The infestation rate of varroosis before and after the use of the composition was determined in order to demonstrate the efficacy of this method.
