Dealing with ants and wax moth

摘要

I have about 80 hives and growing. Every season I get a few in each yard with a million ants in between the lid and inner cover . I kill them and when / retum they are still there. What to do? I am worried that if I poison them the poison will somehowfind its way into the hive or leave a residue in the honey.Answer: I don't like these ants either Ants don't like damp conditions. Squash as many as you can and then place a handful of fresh grass under the lid. Another alternative is to use fresh or even dried walnut leaves.
