Hi all,
Me again. I have bought some second hand equipment from a retiring beekeeper. The colonies that were contained have died/swarmed/starved to extinction.
I have ditched all the frames and have just kept the brood box/super/roofs etc
There was a major greater wax moth infestation with many scallops where pupae were.
I have scraped all clean, soda washed, soaked in bleach and torched.
Anything else I should do? Sulphur?
(Apart from bin lol)
