Beekeeping With Wax Moths | Cleaning Frames

[@johnn1a2]

Too funny I do the same and especially how well they clean all the pollen and bee bread out

[@thesidelinebeekeeper-craig6924]

Wax moths! Love them or hate them, We have to deal with them. I try to keep on top of any stored combs, but I’ve had my share of destroyed comb. Never thought of using them. Good stuff!

[@PennsyltuckyBees]

OMG!!! Thank you Mr. Barry!!! This is the best " HOW TO" video I have ever seen!!! You ROCK!!! Seriously though, I myself do find the wax moth helpful at times also. Take care and God bless.

[@MikeBarryBees]

😁😁. You said ‘How to’ 😂😂. You know you meant to say, ‘How he does’. Well, I thought it would be a controversial video honestly and only one person gave me push back, and really, that person always gives me push back….so no harm, no foul. You take care as well and God’s blessings to you as well. Thanks!!

[@steliandone4078]

Yes I do practice this for long time but I remove the foundations from frames and I stuck them so the wax mouth clean them. If you have chicken 🐓 feed them with the worms. Delicious.

[@MikeBarryBees]

Great to hear this. Confirmation for me. Thanks for watching!!!

[@jhulin9018]

Brilliant. If you cant beat them...join them!!

[@MikeBarryBees]

That’s exactly right. I needed that for my title!

[@ZelmaBees]

You gotta love creation! Everything is purposeful.

Hi Zelma

[@ZelmaBees]

hope all is well with you and Sharon@@jimmysneighborhoodbees

[@johnkasprak5707]

Mike - Love it ... make the pests work for you! If you remove the plastic from the frames you can let them go and then just pop them back in. Thanks for the video.

[@MikeBarryBees]

I agree John, and I did that the first time I discovered how good they cleaned them. It was a stack of just foundation. All these frames never really got tended to after being stashed, so the frames were affected. So I am going to make it a point to take them out of the frames and stack them. And honestly, those little moths get in there when it’s just tightly stacked foundation and they clean them so well. Thanks for the support!! And for the comment!!

[@CrazyIvan865]

I had a similar thought. I imagine one cohkd just store the frames without foundation in the boxes and never have to worry about that, that or the other. Any box you grab that's in good serviceable condition is gonna have the appropriate number of the appropriate size frames and you just gotta grab some foundations to throw in them. Might even be able to prewax the foundation out of the frames and have them ready to go. I'm sure it woukd make it easier to have an even coating of wax all the way to the corners. I think Mike Palmer mentioned that they boil pot of water like you had in the video with water in the bottom and just dip all their own foundations. I think he said 1kb of wax does 10 frames which is heavier than the commercial "pre-waxed" frames but the bees take to them and draw them out better. Just checked the forum. He repurchased a Maxant 500gal bottling tank by swapping out the element fir a 220V 500W heating element, filling it with water with about 10" of wax on top, setting the element to 198F, dipping half the sheet, shaking off the excess and then dipping g the other half. I can't remember who it was, I think it might have been Kamon Reynolds that said you cna make wax crayons with the cardboard tube from paper towels or toilet paper roles. If you only need a handful of foundation, you can grab up one if those wax sticks and rub it on the frame.

[@SmokyMountainLashBees]

I’m dreading it a little I’m about to be pulling out the equipment and seeing what the moths got to. It didn’t get put away like I wanted cause of dealing with all my hip issues last year. Hopefully this year will be much better once I get everything cleaned up and ready to go.

[@brucesbees]

I love it Mike. Great idea!

[@lilbob369]

Nice job! That’s how I clean mine. There’s more than one way to skin a cat! I appreciate the tips and tricks.

[@rodneymiddleton9624]

I stumbled across the same thing and it worked great!! Thanks Mike!

[@Stoneynz]

Hi again Mike. Clint from New Zealand, They don't seem to be treating you like you got a third eye now, Ha Ha Good on ya for coming out.....I have anything up to 100 boxes with the wax moth working on them at a time. My frames are mainly all plastic and I have old boxes dedicated to this job, cause they can do a bit of damage to the boxes. Once they are done I lay the frames out in a line and waterblast ,dry and then wax. So much easier working with nature isn't it. Oh well ,best get back to harvesting my Manuka honey. Cheerrs from Clint

[@MikeBarryBees]

Clint, thanks so much for the post and you’re right, way less push back than I expected out of this video. Of course one regular viewer who always tends to be critical made mention, but I don’t mind, he’s actually a good viewer and seems pretty knowledgeable. He just does everything different. He’s not far from you, just across the water from you in Australia. Anyhow, the idea of dedicating a few boxes really peaked my interest. I need to think about that and also good to hear someone actually doing this as a standard practice. I try to tell folks just how clean the foundations come out. Quite amazing. Thanks again!!

[@kevinogden4363]

I do that too, I just peel web and all right off, sometimes they make holes in the foundation. Just relax and reuse.

[@kevinogden4363]

Supposed to be rewax

THANKS! Great video

You’re welcome and glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!!

Thanks Mike, I didn’t know wax moths would burrow into wood, I learned something today, God bless !

[@glennsnaturalhoney4571]

Birds love wax moth larvae🐦🐦 I've sat infested frames out and the birds clean them out in no time.

[@davidtmp]

Shoot, and here I was going to try and get them spotless. Thanks for saving me some time!

[@johniac7078]

Here is me the amateur telling a pro.......but have you tried to spray your frames with Certan before you put they away in storage? It is Bacillus thuringiensis spores. When the larva appear, the spores hatch and the Bacillus bacteria eats them. HA! Take that wax moths! Woke very well, organic and pretty inexpensive. I only have 20 hives but this approach was surprisingly good in a test I did. Love you vids, thanks Mike.

[@MikeBarryBees]

No indeed, not an amateur telling a pro. You’re a beekeeper sharing information so that we can all grow and improve. I have not tried Certan…….yet. I did keep tabs on some tests done with BT years ago, before Certan was a thing for bees. I used BT in my garden, when I gardened. Some tests were better than others, and the differences were mainly between which frames had more or less pollen. I never did go forward and now with Certan on the market specifying comb protection, I am watching closely and eagerly awaiting a few more testimonials on its performance. The frames that I do store for protection that I don’t scrape, I store under moth crystals and the crystals are expensive these days and require airing out prior to use. The frames in the video are frames that are just no good or damaged and the ones you saw with all the cocoons were about half a dozen that I never scraped and just randomly left on top of the stack. So these were never meant to save. For the 150 or so frames that I have stored inside the building under moth crystals (round cakes from Amazon) I’m hoping to see some more testimonials on Certan and eventually shift to that. Yours is just another positive testimonial. Thanks for the comment and for the support!!

[@gunlinebees.3831]

🤣 "Let em work for you!" 🤣

[@mikesbeesllc]

Great information Mike. God Bless

[@MikeBarryBees]

Thanks Mike!!

[@jimmysneighborhoodbees]

I've had frames similar to yours and I thought I messed up and neglected them too much. I wouldn't use them. I learned I can clean them up and put them back in use. Thanks. Sorry we couldn't connect when Sharon & I were in Louisiana, maybe next time.

[@MikeBarryBees]

Yea, hated we couldn’t catch up. Weekends are best for me when you’re down again. Be cool if you were down here during a removal with Mr. Ed and I.

[@jimmysneighborhoodbees]

I'd love to watch a removal, not sure how much help I'd be. We will try to connect next time for sure.

[@kathyhathaway8823]

Wow I never thought wax moth would be good for anything but you have proved me wrong. I use all wax foundation but for my brood frames when I start switching them out to Black plastic foundation because I just can not see the eggs so I need to do something. Thanks Mike an Randy

[@GrammyMidwife]

Love it! Utilize the wax moths! 😂 Whatever works.

[@bobbarbarabrostrom3650]

Thanks for such a practical video, and for covering the less fun side of beekeeping. I’ve always wondered how to clean old frames that I’ve scraped but that still have some wax, pollen, etc. I know this wasn’t a how-to video, but the tire brush and wax ideas look promising…

[@rickwarner516]

Good job Mike 👍🏽❤️❤️❤️

[@mattsara2802]

That’s a really good idea Mike. That is one thing I have not had to deal with yet but I am sure it will happen

[@jweaver7170]

Now about $40 for 20 frames I'll take your advice. Have been doing myself and see I'm on the right track. Thanks Mike NE Texas

[@MikeBarryBees]

If a person has the time and patience, and some wax of course, a lot of mo way can be saved. As I grow, I can see moving to buying more than cleaning, but when there is time, it’s worth it. Hope you all’s season is a great one in NE Texas. I haven’t heard from the folks I know in Shreveport yet.

[@GEEZBEEZ]

Like the idea Mike. Enjoyed the video. Take care.

[@MikeBarryBees]

Thanks 👍 glad you enjoyed it Garry!!

[@johnmarshall6572]

Good talk Mike! I have some foundation that I had pushed out of the frames and the wax moth have gotten to them. I'm going to try your method and see how they do. If it works, that will be a game changer for me. Thanks for the heads up!

[@meloneycrews]

Great video Mike..I need to finish cleaning up ours!! God Bless you friend!! Thanks again for all you do!💕💞

[@Steele_Wings]

Hey Mike I dip my plastic frames in my deep wax render pot of boiling water for seconds. Then scrap off wax in seconds. Don't dip too long or plastic will warp. I clean all plastic frames the same way. Charlotte NC.

[@MikeBarryBees]

I tried and it warped the sheets. I do like the dipping method for coating, but I just haven't done it yet. I need a bigger pot. I suppose I left them too long. Thanks for sharing your method Patrick!!

[@35jays]

Just recently found your channel and have subscribed. Thanks for the great video on cleaning frames. I live in SW Missouri and leave my frames outside too. Thanks again!

[@MikeBarryBees]

Thanks for subscribing!! And glad you enjoyed the video.

[@randybrocka1941]

I had the same results, at first i thought they were ruined but had to use them. The bees totally fixed them up with drawn comb in two weeks time. Thanks for all the info!

[@t5rider07]

I love it. Work smarter not harder...especially if it works for you. Going to put this technique in the ol' tool box.

[@noahG82]

What are you doing man are you crazy!!! Hahahaha I'm kidding!! I think it's great that you found something those dang things are good for. I do know one thing this might be the most disclaimers I've seen in a KZbin video regarding beekeeping! Thanks, Mike, for the video, sir!

[@Peter_Gunn]

It looks like the ones that had comb still ended up looking better.

[@MikeBarryBees]

Peter, I agree. They truly came out better. Only issue was they were the ones that took the hit on the wood more, but for me, it is kind of worth it.

[@CrazyIvan865]

​@@MikeBarryBeesa Katherine thing I've always wondered about. I has anyone every tried a quick char and coat of wax on the frames before putting the foundation in the.. maybe not a char char. But just enough to darken the wood and make it almost black. Like a Yakisugi finish on the wood. I wonder if the carbon might deter the larva from digging in the surface?

[@MikeBarryBees]

@@CrazyIvan865 I haven’t ever tried it, but I know there are people that char their boxes and some even their frames. Anything is worth trying and it would be an interesting experiment to be honest with a control frame and a charred frame.

Mike…. I am going to try that with a few boxes I have stashed in the driveway that all ready got hit with wax moths…. Thanks

[@rtxhoneybees]

Wax moths are necessary to clean out tree cavities so the bees can re-occupy. Might as well put em to work. What I learned most was that the brush is called a tire brush! I have one and its the best for cleaning floors and other surfaces. No I have a word to google to get another one!

[@CharlesDevall-ce2du]

Dirt rooster said it's got three sides on that frame it's good

[@RossRadford]

If you have chickens, do the scraping with them around and they'll have a feast.

I think its worth it especially if you don't have a lot of hives there like $4 each 🤯🤯🤯🤯

[@WPAOutdoors]

Wondering how a custom made solar wax melter for frames would work for this. Just put 20 frames in it in the morning, let them melt all day. I might have to try this one day 😀

[@MikeBarryBees]

It warps the plastic foundation. Works great on old wax foundation, but the heat will warp the plastic. I've tried it with a couple frames before. I think if you could keep close tabs on it, it could work, but once it warps, its pretty much ruined.

[@WPAOutdoors]

@@MikeBarryBees didn’t think of that, makes sense. Thanks for the info!

[@scotthenderson4376]

I just soaked mine in water with a little bleach then put the hose to them on high spray to get the pollen out and clean up the comb but for the ones I took the comb off this might work

[@MikeBarryBees]

I did that last year. That tin they were in stunk something awful, but it sure worked once I hosed them out. These that I scraped were beyond cleaning and were ready for scraping. Thanks for watching!!

Try separating the frame and foundation before stalking to prevent frame damage 😮

Great idea. I did that last season with a few and it worked well. These that had the wood damage were late adds to the stack and I should have done what you are suggesting. Thanks for the insight!! And thanks for your support!!

[@dominicanbeekeeper6686]

@@MikeBarryBees I been fighting with these frames for the past few days, if only you made this video a few days earlier 😂, I'm definitely keeping this technique in my back pocket till I need it. It's too much work cleaning these frames

[@sentimentalbloke7586]

Pass ...... I am certainly not going to breed up wax moths. I use a boiler and melt off wax, in hot water, it kills the moths and eggs, plus as you remove the frames you coat them with wax in one operation, no scrubbing no second and third operations, job done.

[@MikeBarryBees]

To each his own. Wax moths are breeding around you regardless, plain and simple, so that's a mute point. A boiler will not clean the frames with a quick dip and a long dip will warp the plastic foundation, so I'm very strongly doubting your method. It's been tried and it won't clean them. Quick dips coat cleaned foundation, that about it.

[@framcesmoore]

Just a thought it would be great to show how u rewax them Thanks

[@MikeBarryBees]

I'll be doing that soon enough Frances. Probably this month sometime. Stay tuned and thanks as always!!

[@davidharmon5848]

Hello Barry. I’m trying to keep my apiary at 20. I’m planing on making nucs & hives to sell so I don’t go over 20. Do they sell pretty easily?

[@MikeBarryBees]

They do sell pretty well. There is always someone wanting to purchase colonies. It’s tricky later in the year with NUCs because they have few resources the closer to the dearth. So those are the times that 10 frame full hives sell good. And for more.

[@CrazyIvan865]

I'll preface with sayingp I'm not a beekeeper. Although I have had great interest and been researching for years. Not quite bee keeping. But rather bee biology, hive microbiology, bee behavior, how they do what they do, oest and pathogens, etc. I also consider myself somewhat of a scientistphilosopher or Techno-monk. Pretty much everything. Almost every new thing I come across, I want to delve into research, and perspective from many different angles and try to get a better understanding. And especially so when it comes to nature outside of human interference and control. I do believe in science and evolution. But I also believe those are mostly just simple explanations of this incredibly intricate World that the ultimate scientist, geneticists, architect, whatever, has made for us. Call it God, Gaia, great spirit, all father Odin... i mean... nobody looks at a cell phone or computer or any man made thing that does incredible things that whould blow the minds of our fore fathers; and denies that there was a creator or team of creators in it being here. The more I learn and understand of about science and especially about nature; the more there is undeniable proof that there is a God and all this was very intricately designed. Anyway. I try to understand the reason behind everything. Almost everything we observe is an effect of a cause, a reaction to an action; and will have subsequent echoing effects on down the line. So I try to sort out and understand how all these puzzle pieces fit together. Nobody likes getting eaten up by mosquitos. But they're kinda natures own virologists and imunologists. You go to the doctor and get a flu shot that gives you a little bit of the flu virus and causes an immune response and mutation in the immune system to build resistances to that virus... a mosquito does the same thing for free. And just like with the needke the doctor has, the doctor nor the mosquito has any first hand knowledge of whats actuakky in that innoculation. In a natural world, you either gain some immunity and your grand kids have even better immunity. Or you succumb to malaria or small pox or something and aren't a participant in the next round of natural selection as the species continues to evolve. People that live in areas that have malaria and scarlet fever and all these other diseases... they don't have to take doxycyline twice day, every day for their whole life. Because several thousand years ago their ancestors were the ones that survived and didn't die off from it, and on down the line social immunity was gained through natural means. Anyway... Everything has a purpose. And humanity is working harder and not smarter, fighting nature in every direction, because we have the knowledge that we're intelligent. An educated man understands that he knows something; A wise man knows he understands nothing. So I like to ponder and observe how nature does what it does and consider the why behind the how. I've come to this conclusion about wax moths. They do have their purpose for specific reasons we don't know or understand. Best we can do is stop fighting nature. What evidence do I have to this claim when I dont keep bees? The fact that you've got to protect brood supers with chemicals and jump through hoops. But honey comb that's never had brood really isn't much to worry about, as the moths really don't seem to bother it. Why is that? I feel the wax moths are the cleanup and decontamination/Hazmat/CBRN/biohazard disposal crew to the bees. If you or I die and aren't found for a week or 2, what happens? There has to be a specific cleanup crew with the knowledge and ability to safely clean up, decontaminate, and bring that house or apartment back to being a safe livable space for the next tenants. The moths are those guys to the bees. When a hive dies out, mites get blamed because we can't see or measure the other potential reasons without sending samples off to a laboratory for testing. Hell, you can nuke a hive with treatments to the point of killing off enough gut micribiology in the bees that the bees can't digest anything and die of starvation with a full belly. When you start going over the studies that compare industrial/agricultural hives and their hive and gut microbiology to ones that were put out on an island and never treated with a treatment chemical, never exposed to pesticides or fertilizer or herbicides etc... it's pretty astounding the difference. What I'm say is, we can't know the cause of the hive dying out. We can only blame mites or whatever we feel like using as a scape goat. It could be any number of microscopic reasons or other factors we dont consider. But that doesnt matter to the wax moth. If that hive died out from sickness, microbial imbalance, herbicide, pesticide, chemical toxin, pest, disease, etc, it doesn't matter much. The wax moths will go in, lay their eggs, the larva will eat up all that old black comb that's contaminated to the point where brood cant survive in it, turn everything to webbing and poop/soil and after some time it will be clean and fit for the next colony to make a home. Imagine if someone died of a communicable disease and there wasnt a biohazard crew to clean the house, and not a lot of other options for other houses that hasn't had a dead person rotting and making the place contaminated. Seems like humans would run out of places to live. Bees survived for millions of years without humans. And have survived this long in spite of humans. Humans are like the little kid that thinks they know everything and are smarter than everybody, but they won't listen and make a mess of everything by thinking everything needs our "help" or "saving". Why fight nature? You're not gonna win. All you can do is trigger a downward spiral that makes more trouble for everyone involved. Why not observe it and try and learn from it, rather than dictating what it should do? Have you ever sat and watched ants? When you look at humans, how we travel, live in cities, work together, how the military functions, look at battle... somewhere along the line of human history... it seems as though someone did sit and watch the ants. And maybe learned a couple things. Heres a question I've had about the wax though. I always see everybody rendering it 3 or 4 times, dumping the brown water and scraping all that gunk off... it seems dirty to us. But it seems like it might be something that would attract bees and help them feel at home. Who knows, maybe even healthy for bees once it's sterile. Has anyone ever tried just melting the wax in a double boiler without the water, straining through a strainer or screen, heating to 350F to sterilize it and then just using that for boxes, frames and foundation? I mean... swarm traps work best when they smell like an okd hive right? I wonder what woukd be the difference between all old equipment and unrefined (raw?) Wax inside a hive and coating the frames and foundation... As compared to all new equipment and really refined wax. I wonder if the bees would take to it or build things a little easier if they had that hive smell all over everything? I dont think I've ever seen anyone attempt it. We like fresh new "clean" equipment and wax. But from everything I've come across, it seems like the bees prefer something thats old and coated with "dirty" wax and propolis. Or so it seems. I wiah I had the money anx land/place for some hives. I'm always thinking of something I cant find any information on. And theres a lot of different "this vs that" exoeriments that seem to have never reskky be tried out. Or at leazt not doccumented for others to learn from. Pretty much every answer I get prompts a new question. And when I cant find an answer, I want to experiment. But where I am. I just cant.

[@MikeBarryBees]

Great comment. I enjoyed your perspective and find it very informative. A lot of great points. Mentioning the wax rendering and pouring off the debris, sludge, and slum gum is something that has been comping up more often, and suggests you think like a beekeeper, always problem-solving. But that’s true in any hobby, vocation, and profession as well. I hope you would one day find a place for a couple of hives as I think you would have a blast studying them in person and I imagine would find many interesting solutions to some of the most common issues. New ideas and experiments is what will teach us easier or more beneficial ways to keeps bees.

[@CrazyIvan865]

@@MikeBarryBees thank you for your kind and encouraging words Mr. Barry. I do try to research and understand things from different perspectives. Hopefully some day I'll somewhere I can put some hives. But the new laws and restrictions are getting pretty ridiculous. For instance; if I ever am able to start, I'd prefer to start with swarm traps or removals rather than purchased nucs. But in TN, can't buy, sell, give, gift, transfer, etc etc anything that's used if it isn't part of an active colony (such as established hive, package or nuc). Well... how's one gonna get slumb gum or raw wax or old brood comb for swarm traps if they don't already have bees? I'm thinking that law might have been written by Mann-Lake or one of them. Because every new person that comes along has to purchase new equipment. And the people that quit in their first 3 years can't even give their equipment to someone else starting out. It has to be destroyed or thrown out and the new person has to buy all new equipment. Anyway... I'll keep learning and keep trying to work towards getting some of my own. Thanks again for another wonderful video and a really good perspective. I've mentioned before my beliefs that the wax moths have a purpose and are there for reasons we don't understand. But of course I get met with rebuke and run out of the forum on a rail or people replying "don't listen to this person, they don't keep bees". It's nice to see someone that people might listen to have a similar perspective.

HOW DO YOU PUT YOUR WAX ON YOUR FRAMES

[@MikeBarryBees]

Four inch sponge roller and I use an electric skillet to melt the wax in. Here’s a video I did on it. About the 25:00 minute mark I show the process I use. kzbin.info/www/bejne/m5PQlIp4mLSkaJYsi=0PL8cSP9e8zB2yaK

[@taddrienstra7247]

Seems just punching the foundations out would pretty much erase the down side.

[@MikeBarryBees]

I agree Tadd. I had a stack of loose foundations and they were clean as a whistle. Normally if I scrape the first, I have rarely gotten the moths into the wood, but when it happens, well, you see what I mean. But you’re absolutely correct, that would solve the issue and fine tune the process. Good to see you again at the Expo.
