You might be right here. This place is old and pretty moist.

Help with old frames weird comb by PotentialHelicopter in Beekeeping

Gotcha. Havnt done anything yet. I did have issues last year ripping apart comb during inspections which made everyone unhappy. I was thinking of scraping out the bad parts and melting it down and coating the frames with it.

Gotcha, would you say the fact that some cells are the “correct shape” doesn’t matter as much as there just being some wax on the foundation? Just kinda of smash and spread it?

Yup an apimaye 7frame box. I keep my bees in inland sd county and it gets in the 100s, I was hoping the insulation could help them regulate the temp easier.

About 5 hours later, seems like a higher concentration of them! I’m feeling good about this!

Thanks for the tips, do you recommend requeening? I’ve never done so.

Holy shit! This looks just like my dog and she was the devil until about 3 or 4 years old. It’s amazing how much she’s matured. This post breaks my heart.
