I have found a nice mixture of artificial almond extract (benzaldehyde) purchased in the canning aisle of our local farm supply store (much, much cheaper than the grocery store) along with tea tree oil and eucalyptus oil.  
 
I often add in a little 90% isopropol alcohol (Wal-Mart) to speed the distribution and evaporation.  By the time I get the supers back to the honey house, there are no fumes or odors remaining.
 
Can't same the same about that Bee-Go stuff.
