Very good. I didn't know you could get canned bee larvae:wouldn't  begin 
to know where to look for it. Found some canned fried dace in an 
oriental store in San Francisco. They were rather awful. When I was a 
kid we knocked /Polistes/ paper wasp nests from eaves. The larvae and 
pupae were great bait but the pupae were delicate and  difficult to keep 
on the hook.

If you raise waxworms it might best be done at some distance from the 
apiary.
