So, Thymol has a melting point of 120 to 124 F, it really shouldn't be melting inside a beehive.  And, if it doesn't disappear to any appreciable extent at hive temperatures (outside the hive) then either the bees are moving it out, or there is some other environmental factor inside the hive affecting the sublimation process.

I asked but I don't think I made it clear,  does the grinding (blender) and mixing with poly  effect the evaporation,  either by lowering the vapor point,  or hugely increasing the surface are exposed??


Pondering Randys suggestiong of the 1 1/2 rim,  and wondering if it has to be accesable?
