I scrape and reuse the wood frames - I must be introducing some "toxic" elements?
I snap out the old plastic brood foundation and put new plastic in, but can't help but think,
I am inoculation some nasty chemical, or biological elements, besides the obvious like foulbrood,
when I reuse the wood frames, with all that super dark, wax.
I've heard people here say, don't worry about it, they love that dark brood wax stuff with the burnt smell.
On the honey frames I reuse the plastic foundation too, wax is fresh, not dark.
