Dear Allen, et al,
I think that the observation of bees collecting wax or propolis is simply
robbing activity.
As for getting propolis off excluders, I run mine through my paraffin
barrel which gets most of it off. This is the same barrel in which I cook
my woodware for 15 minutes each at about 250° in lieu of painting.
Regards,
Charles Andros
