maqs strips

[hypostatic]

Hi all,

I just purchased some MAQS strips to put in my hive (my bees have varroa). However my hive has 2 brood boxes, bottom one full and top one only about a third full.

So was wondering, should I put the strips on top or the middle of my brood boxes? Also, I have a super one which is nearly fully capped so should I put it on top of this?

Between the brood boxes.

Dont be alarmed by the dead bees out the front or lack of brood for a week or so either. I thought all was lost then saw some lovely brood pattern and the original queen walking about 2 weeks after MAQS. No varroa drop either although I'll hold my breath on that one till brood starts hatching again :)
