But beekeepers certainly do, and at rates no lower than the general public.
And there's also Beekeeper's Back for which that bloke Langstroth is to blame! People ought to switch to top bar hives before/instead of getting back problems caused by lifting heavy, low, boxes and then twisting to put them down beside the hive. You also get fewer stings with top bar hives as the bees don't know you're there!
