Hi Bill
Yes, it is moth larvae. I should have mentioned that we didn't extract
the supers right away, and while they were sitting in my brothers kitchen,
the wax moths were able to get in. I wasn't expecting it to happen,
or I would have either extracted sooner, or put the supers in the freezer.
We also use queen excluders, so I know they are wax moth larvae.
>Anyway, it sure is *raw* honey with a protein supplement. May fetch

Hehehe....actually, I thought of putting "high protein" on the label.
(just kidding..;)
