Yes, bee propolis does expire over a specific time period. The actual time in which the bee propolis expires depends on factors such as the form in which the propolis is in and the type of conditions it is stored in.

What do people use propolis for?

Propolis has been used for many years as a component in fine varnishes for such things as musical instruments. It has also been proposed as a treatment for a number of medical problems, although I can find no record of any scientific investigation to validate these claims. What is known is that propolis has anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties.


How do you use a propolis mat on your beehive?

Installed like queen excluders, the propolis mat is designed so that bees will deposit propolis from underneath, through the wedge shaped slits. As the lid does not permit the bees entry to the space above the mat, the propolis is free from contamination by hive components and excess wax. Raw propolis is harvested by scraping the mats. (Or place mats in the freezer for a few days to make it easier to remove, by banging the mat on a sheet of newspaper on a firm surface). Research shows that propolis offers antiseptic, antibiotic, anti-fungal, and even antiviral properties. The raw product undergoes secondary processing to remove beeswax and other impurities before being used in a variety of natural health care products (eg., lozenges, tinctures, ointments, toothpaste).
