I was sorting through my stored frames and found this mess. Thankfully, only a handful of frames were affected. This is what a wax moth can do! I was fascinated by the sheer wealth of mess behind the comb. And the black stuff? Poop!! I scraped all the wax off and disposed of it, and then froze all the frames that I saw with cocoons. This was my fault as I'd seen signs of a wax moth before storage but just assumed I'd got everything. I should have frozen the effected frame before storage.

This is what #waxmoth devastation to a beehive looks like. Remember to always check your hives regularly especially if you don’t see any signs of bees in the box. The #bees can control them if the population if the bees are strong. However if you leave the box unattended after a beehive has absconded or died, this can happen to your #Beehive thanks for watching please like and share❤️🐝 https://www.instagram.com/p/B3uYq5DpPMA/?igshid=v4id8ijeskq8

Wax moths, the scourge of a weak colony. The hive was almost empty, so not enough bees to patrol the comb. I've taken all this out and melted it down. #bees #beekeeping #pests #waxmoth https://www.instagram.com/p/ByCsMYNBKcf/?igshid=k7o0tm2kf3h

The loss of yet another hive this year. Depressed isn't really the best word to use right now, but it definitely sets the mood. #saveourbees #hivelife #insidethehive #honeybees #hivebeetles #waxmoth #burnthemtosavethem #sadday #stubees427 (at Stu-Bee's 427)
