Dear beeliners,
 
I know that in New Zealand the beekeepers use paraffin wax to sterilize hive
parts from colonies
infected with AFB. I read an article about this in the American bee journal
of july 1992.
I would like to know what is the exact principle by which this product
operate to treat AFB and
also if someone had some experience with this kind of treatment.
 
Thank you for your help
