ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT WAX MOTH - BEEKEEPING

[@youcandoitmmmk327]

Thanks so much for the info...currently having issues with my hives. Appreciate the knowledge 😊

I appreciate wax above honey so after the EXTRUDER process meaning not extracting the classic sling honey process all goes in the solar wax melter. the 7/1 ratio for the bee too make wax/honey doesn’t really count in my Mediterranean region.

My understanding (but I have no experience yet) is that once a wax moth infestation is too-far-gone, the bees won't clean-up and use the comb, despite killing the actual moths with freezing. Not sure if it's true or not. I have wondered if in feral colonies the moths eat the bottom of the comb as the bees move upwards in winter and then the bees would replace it.

I scraped off all the wax then used my heated power washer to clean the frame, waxed up the frames again to use at a later time.
