Preheat, load the plunger with oxalic acid, and treat each colony in seconds. The stainless-steel build holds up to repeated use, and the built-in voltage meter gives real-time battery feedback.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eUsage Instructions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInsert a fully charged 18V battery. Allow the unit to preheat to 445°F. Fill the plunger with 1–4 grams of oxalic acid and insert the stem through a ¼-inch drilled hole or the hive entrance. Tap the plunger to release the oxalic acid, which vaporizes immediately. Each hive takes approximately 25 seconds to treat. Monitor the voltage display throughout, and wear appropriate protective gear, including a vapor mask.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBattery Tips:\u003c\/strong\u003e Use 5Ah or larger batteries for best performance.
