Chalk brood and thyme

We have odd weather this year and chalkbrood is hitting hard right now. I have heard that products containing thymol can reduce chalk brood. If I put some sprigs of thyme in the top of my hive will the bees spread thymol through the hive while they remove it and reduce chalkbrood?
