For what its worth,  Bleach is a great killer for the Larve (pour it on
infected frames) once it dries and airs out you can put them back in. as an
alternative to freezing.. ( also works good for cleaning up hive bases)

But Bleach in the HFCS does not seem to kill the larva 48 hours showed no
increased mortality at 3 times the normal concentration ( 3 cups in 50
gallons)  Normaly 1 cup per 50 gallons to inhibit mold and fermentation
