Yes, before storing I recommend freezing overnight to destroy wax moth
infestation and then storing in a wax moth free area until needed. Honey
itself does not freeze and is undamaged by exposure to cold. You could
place the frames in a plastic garbage bag and seal after freezing to protect
from wax moth.
