Hi all
 
I have a bucket full of honey I extracted from a super
which had a little wax worm larvae in it, as well as what
appears to be their waste.  I have so far hesitated to
sell this, but since I am now out of honey except for
this, I am wondering if it is ok to sell it.  I use a fine
mesh filter bag which is sold at most bee supply
places; I think you know the one I mean.  I am told
it is finer than what is required to qualify honey as
"Canada Grade A".   Is it normal to have the odd wax
moth larvae in comb, and to sell the extracted honey?
And therefore....is it ok for me to sell this?
