Cleaning old boards and hive boxes

Can someone tell me what to clean old boxes and boards with? I have a bunch that sat outside behind our pole barn for a couple years and would love to restore them.

Hive boxes and are you talking Frames?

I have never but if it were I, I would scrub them with a wire brush and take a hand torch and go over the inside of the box really good, so to kill anything that might be living in there (Pericytes.

If you have old frames, I'd remove any foundation and wire brush the frame as well.
