I'm looking to buy "Clean" beeswax. That would be wax that has not been fogged with FGMO (I'm not worried about the emousion) or exposed to Apistan or Check Mite etc.

I know I can get it from Africa, but it comes by way of Germany and then here and the shipping is going to kill me.

Does anyone out there have any for sale?

If I can't get clean wax then I might go for some that has only been exposed to FMGO fog.

Hi,

I'd like some clean wax also. If you find a US source let me know Micheal. I've looked and just couldn't find any truly "clean" wax in the USA. Now you understand why it has taken the Lusby's so long to build up it is tough thing to get. The Lusby's lost I think a ton or two of clean wax when they had a fire and it was all lost. And has taken a long time to recover.

50 to 100 pounds would be a nice start.

I'm realizing that if I'm going to do the small cell thing, I think I also need to start with clean wax.

It is hard, but the goal is sure tantalizing.
