Are they rhubarb leaves over formic acid wafers?

I used formic acid strips between the top and bottom brewed box and then rhubarb leaves between the second brood box and the first honey super.

Cheers 3M. Rhubarb leaves are rich in oxalic acid. 🤔 Are we starting to see more definitive preventative treatments other than torching entire colonies?

I’m combining formic acid strips and oxalic acid from the rhubarb to hopefully treat for mites.
