Ok read up a bit on these moths, the bees will try and control, so fingers crossed, but if they are in there then it means there are more outside waiting to get in!
Found this simple trap on the internet
Take a 2 litre plastic pop bottle and drill a 1 inch hole just below the slope on the neck, then add 1 cup water, 1 cup sugar, 1 half cup vinegar and finally 1 banana peel. Wait a few days till it starts to ferment, then tie it into a tree close to the hives. This trap will draw the wax moth, they enter the hole can't get out and drown in the liquid
I have all the ingredients, bottle is drilled, look out Whyteleafe's wax moths Peter's going to get you :-) Hmm only one problem no trees in my garden!:-)
