A friend and I were talking yesterday,  the question I had and neither of us
could really answer is if the chemicals in wax are really a problem?  And if
so why?  (we were talking about comb rotation and a good friend who makes
huge numbers never rotates comb)


Seems to me that if the wax has "absorbed" the chemical,  and it is now
bound in the wax,  no harm no foul.  Similar in thought process pills in the
cabinet.  If it secure and bound then it seems to me it's in a safe place?
Thinking particularly about fluvalinate and cumaphous.

Why are they an issue if they are bound?
