Hi Bill,

The folks at NOD told us that freezing them basically stops the degradation
of the plastic in the strip, so for ones that will go out of date by the
next use, not a bad idea to freeze them.

When they are old, the problem is the plastic will release too much formic
too quickly, NOT that they are less effective, but that they are more
dangerous for the bees.
