> Same here: decades, no bee kill. Bee-Go is the only repellent I would use, but in this climate it is often too cool to work properly when I am pulling honey, especially in the fall. 

I was surprised to see that the US is still using fume boards.  Here in Australia they were banned many years ago due to residues from the fumes being found in honey.  Overseas countries were demanding honey free from residues of these fumes.  Residues meant rejection.

Are residues not taken into consideration in the US?
