Hello Bee-l

I still have several supers of honey from last year and wax worms
are starting to do their damage.  I have read in "The Hive and The
Honey Bee" that "paradichlorobenzine (PDB) should never be used to
fumigate comb honey as it will permiate the cappings and ruin the
flavour of the honey".  I wasn't aware of this and have had the para
crystals on the combs for a few days and am wondering if it is
safe to extract it.  Is PDB toxic?  Will the smell go away if I air out
the supers for a while?

Thanks,

Ian Watson
