Features of the insect

What is wax moth? This insect is a small gray butterfly that, like bees, gets access to honey. Every professional beekeeper knows such an insect, because he already has experience in fighting the moth.

The fact is that wax (bee) moths have an odor that is very similar to the aroma of bee honey. As a result, the bees accept this butterfly as “one of their own”, because it also drinks honey from flowers.

Bee moth caterpillars are very voracious, so they are very effective in treating a variety of ailments.

Our ancestors learned the various healing properties of the honey butterfly in the 17th century. During this period, experienced healers used bee moth tincture to treat specific heart ailments.

Description of the bee moth

Bee moth, or wax moth, is a pest that beekeepers are constantly fighting . In Ancient Greece, this winged insect was called more poetically - golden butterfly. But it is not the wax moth itself that harms the bees, but its larvae, which are a real scourge.

The butterfly lays eggs several nights in a row, after which it dies. After 5 days, pale gray larvae about 1 mm long begin to emerge from the laid eggs. At first they feed on beebread and honey. As the caterpillars grow, their diet expands - honeycomb, propolis and royal jelly are added to it. A few days before turning into butterflies, the caterpillars already begin to eat insulating material, frames, and even each other.

If measures are not taken to combat golden butterfly larvae, bee colonies leave the hive or weaken and die.

A month later, when the caterpillar reaches 2 cm in length, it transforms into a cocoon. It is at this time that sedentary, but rather voracious worms are collected, from which medicinal tinctures and ointments are then prepared.

They hoped that when I grew up, my body would rebuild itself and everything would return to normal, but they were wrong. Colds simply haunted me. What to do? After all, now I have a son, and I can’t get sick in any way, so as not to infect my treasure. To begin with, I decided to try folk remedies, and I was advised to purchase bee moth tincture.
