Detailed explanation-1: -Beeswax foundation is the traditional option for bee hives and comes with or without crimped wire. We recommend using wedge frames with beeswax foundation.
Detailed explanation-2: -Before storing frames of honey comb, freeze them (both brood raised honey comb & honey super honey comb) for at least two days to kill wax moth eggs (tiny black specks difficult to see) and hive beetles. Store frames of honey comb and seal comb immediately upon removing from freezer.
Detailed explanation-3: -Foundation are sheets of beeswax or plastic that are used to guide the comb building and give support to the comb. Foundation is not required, as bees will build comb without it. Foundation is used to guide the location and orientation of the comb.
