I was poking around the internet and found a free sample for a disposable 
hemacytometer slide.

Hemacytometer slides are way out of my price range so I use standard 
microscope slides for checking bees. Since it is free I thought I would see 
how many uses I could get from one of these and I ordered one, free shipping 
too. I thought I would share the link in case some of you are interested. 
They did not ask me for any credit card information so I know if it comes it 
will be free. You have to choose facility when making out the mailing 
information form because it says they can not ship to a residence. I put our 
bee shop as the "facility".
