Allen saide: <reater wax moth larvae are actually raised for
fish bait in some central states and, as a result some moths escape and
fly around>

AND they ship them to bait shops all over the US.  Jerry

Mild winter, wax moth will survive in equipment in warehouse.  Most
winters, the cold kills them off.  Unlike Randy, our winters are cold  enough most
years that survival in weak colonies doesn't happen, because the  weak
colonies don't make the winter.
