Far fewer wax moths these days, but that is down to intolerance of wax

I used thymol for several years, but no braula. I always have a few
lesser wax moth but don't worry about them. I suspect the majority are
probably on the bottom boards rather than comb, where I don't see many. If I had
greater wax moth again, I might be more worried.
