Will be glade to test this idea.  I have already put frames (both scraped
off foundation and drawn foundation) in the chest freezer for several days
in order to protect them from the wax moths (very active here in Texas right
now!).  I will let you know if this works.  Is there a time period or
temperature that is critical?  Because when this doesn't work, I'd hate to
be told that I didn't leave them in there long enough or that I needed
liquid nitrogen in order to get the temperature low enough <lol>   Actually,
its been my experience that after a long time (1 year) in the freezer, that
the wax does become very "brittle" and does flake off (probably due to
drying out more than any thing else).  Right now, I do not believe that this
will work for that very hard brood area wax/slum(sp) composite and pollen
cells.  But I will give it my best try (with an open mind!).  THANKS FOR THE
SUGGESTION & I WILL TRY IT !!!......Anybody else with another idea?
