I found 5 or 6 wax moth larvae on the varroa inspection board of my hive. If the larvae are on the board are they likely to be in the hive? I am reluctant to open the hive to check because they are requeening at the moment.
 
If it a relatively strong hive then don't worry. Just remember to treat any frames from that hive that you put into storage for winter.
