Jim,

>>After 5 years of exchanging letters, PMRA was forced to admit that
there simply were no regulations that they could force-fit onto
the product, that bees were not "pests" to a beekeeper, and that
herding bees out of honey supers at harvest was not "pest control".

Do you have any experience with using Bee-Quick to drive bees out of 
structures or trees?

I can imagine trees might be easier if holes can be drilled above and 
below the nest on the side opposite the entrance.  Bee-Quick could 
then be injected into those holes with the hope the bees would emerge 
at the entrance.  

Structures can be trickier since convection current in the often 
hollow spaces could carry the vapors away from the combs.

Do you think sufficient Bee-Quick vapors could be blown into tree 
holes with Bee-Quick in an unlit smoker to cause the bees to move out?

Penny for your thoughts. :)

Waldemar
