Honey is likely safe for use as a natural sweetener, cough suppressant, and topical product for minor sores and wounds Avoid giving honey — even a tiny taste — to babies under the age of 1 year Honey can cause a rare but serious gastrointestinal condition (infant botulism) caused by exposure to Clostridium botulinum spores

The capped honey was fine, but was mostly crystallized I don't need the honey, but I wanted to save the combs, which were a sticky, yeasty, mess I know there are alternatives to extracting I even know what they are This post isn't about those First step: I took all of the combs with uncapped honey and sprayed them with my hose set on "spray"
