How long after treatment can I add supers to the hive?

Well, capped brood will not respond to an Apigard treatment, so I usually treat them after I harvest the honey or during the winter, when brood populations are low. Don't know where you are or at what point in the cycle your bees are at, but this stuff 'oxidizes' after a few weeks, so if you're concerned about how your honey will be, you're likely months away from a harvest; if so, go for it... (caveat: ask this question directed to 10 beekeepers and you'll get 12 different answers...)

What is expiration of the product you're shipping now in the USA?

As of 8.25.2023, Expiration dates will be around 11.2024

What are the active ingredients? Is there some reason why we can’t read the package label??

The box says this: The active ingredient is Thymol (CAS #89-83-8).....25% Other Ingredients...........................................................75% Total.................................................................................100% I don't know why they don't allow enlarging this picture so the ingredients could be read.

Is it safe to put underneath sorry not styrofoam but a polystyrene top feeder?

I don't know if there will be any reaction with the feeder, but you shouldn't feed while treating.
