YUCKeeee!!! Come on you guys this is getting beyond a joke. Why not throw in
the kitchen sink while your at it? All this mucking about to save the cost
of requeening.
I've noticed this about bee keepers, they'll waste $500 worth of time to
save $5 cash.
A requeen will cost $11US is it worth all the trouble? Also, think of the
cost of losing a hive if your ideas don't work!!
