Something for all to try, While working hives in the apariy and being in the middle of a hot hive, all of a suden THIRST, I've started using a 'camel pack' similar to what the military is using. Looks like a back- pack, mine holds 2-liters of fluid and fits under my coveralls, they have a 'on demand' vaulve it comes out in front and can be coiled in your veil w/no problem and can be bought at most sporting stores, I got mine at BIG 5 SPORTS and paid around $20.00, I think that all bee keepers w/more than 2- hives should invest in one as they seem to be a lifesaver where dehydration is a problem. :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: -- Visit www.honeybeeworld.com/BEE-L for rules, FAQ and other info --- ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
