I finally found where I had seen this before.   Little Creek Bee Ranch   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tf5ZGBF_plQ

I think they have some other videos of their application in the field.

Edit:  I had another link, but it was different, referenced mites, and didn't include any honey.

Edit, Edit:  I keep finding things.  Here is an old reference that lists "killing bees" which is the problem I had read about with Wintergreen. http://rnoel.50megs.com/2000/beetle.htm

Acebird:
Tex, does he have and explanation as to why he doesn't use a mixer?

texanbelchers:
Not that I saw or read,  but it probably has something to do with marital survival.  :cool:  1 spoon, 1 bowl, 1 shot glass, get out of the kitchen.

BeeMaster2:
I do not know about the mixer but I did ask my wife if I should heat the Crisco to make it easier to mix up and then just cool it in the fridge. She said you definitely do not want to do that because the Crisco is whipped to make it soft and fluffy and if you heat it it will be hard and caked when it chills back down.
