APPLICATION AND STORAGE

Virkon S comes in a practical 2.5 kg powder container, making it easy to handle and store.

This powder dissolves in water at 0.5 - 1% to create a liquid disinfectant solution that can be applied to materials that need to be disinfected, such as beehives, frames, or others.

This 2.5kg size is ideal for beekeeping use, as it provides enough product to prepare several disinfectant solutions over time, depending on the cleaning and disinfection needs of beehives and beekeeping materials. However, it is essential to store it in a cool, dry place, protected from direct sunlight. Make sure to close the container tightly after each use to maintain product quality and prevent exposure to moisture or contaminants.
