Robin Dartington asked whether wax moths will attack drawn comb on plastic
foundation.

Of course they will!  The plastic foundation does not alter their normal diet
of
pupal cocoons found in brood cells.

A beekeeper who does not protect his empty drawn combs in the winter is either
lazy or lacks knowledge.  Paradichlorobenzene works and is cheap.
