Moldy smell on honey frames

[Patrick]

I had some frames with foundation in storage that developed mold this spring.  I cleaned off all the fuzzy bits with soap and water let them dry and them put them back in storage.  I need to add a honey super and although the frames are visibly clean and dry there is still a funky mold smell (I guess embeded in the wood).  Will this affect the honey? Will adding 10 frames with this oder affect the hive.
Cheers,
Patrick

Don't think it will cause a problem one bit. If you're worried about the smell you can soak them in lemon juice.

Ok, great. I have a lemon tree that gives me 25 gallons of lemons a year.  I have plenty of lemon juice! The frames already have the foundation on.  Can I still soak in lemon juice?

Yes. Another thing you can try but you might have to remove the foundation, is a propane torch, it will kill mold spores, and the smell.
