I wish I had a freezer just for my bee, but unfortunately, my better half would have a fit if I stacked 30 frames of comb in her food freezer. I would take over 3/5 of the area and she would not approve. All kidding aside, we have talked about getting a used freezer just for my honey house. Thank you for your comment, Herb.

If it is a really bad slime job you might have to put it in front of a very high powered fan for about 24 hours just to get the bees to touch it.

I just posted this about 15 minutes ago. I do hope the soapy water and the washout of the cells will be advantageous. Thanks for your comment. That was fast, Chelsea.
