Hi All
Well our 3 hives have survived, although one looking slightly shakier than the rest, but queen laying strongly. The other 2 hives appear to have wax moth damage. I assume that it what this is, there is no web and the frames are not black, but the wax has definitively been 'nibbled', in fairly large patches.
Should I just assume this is wax moth and treat appropriately ( freezing seems to be the recommended solution) and for the frames with no stores etc , could I put them back in the hive and will bees rebuild, or should I use new foundation and start again.
Sorry for all the questions, I have looked in one book, but must find some time to read the others and BBKA mags..
thanks
Jo
