I intend to make today something similar: pine buds preserved in honey (good for coughs, also). I would like to add some lemon slices in each jar (no peel, just pulp becouse I don't have organic lemons). What do you think? I love your blog, wonderful ideeas! Thank you!

Well, beekeepers have a number of options for mite control, including essential oils and thymol, an essential-oil-derived miticide. But really the best protection is to treat the bees well -- to let them eat honey rather than sugar water, and generally take good care of them so they aren't stressed and susceptible. Thanks!
