Hy all
This is the way we keep the supers in our operation in Uruguay,
standing on the side, in a well ventiladed shed. The low temperature
and low humidity in the frames keeps the moth at bay. The wax moth is
searching their protein source, as mentioned coccon and pollen.
Therefore the supers should be selected. But what do you do with the
dark ones or with pollen remnants?
