Bulltweet!
 
I've been tolerant and polite so far, but we are being *spammed*.
 
In Canada we have laws against false advertising and making
unsubstantiated or outright false claims as these guys are.
 
BEE-L accepts single one time postings of reasonable and honest
(non-commercial) requests for buyers and sellers of relevant items
-- posted occasionally -- with considerable restraint by the list
members.  The postings about this device does not qualify under
several of those criteria.
 
Beware.  If you know anything about formic or bees, you can see
there are misrepresentations in the ads being posted on BEE-L.
 
The price?  Well I can tell you where to buy pads for application in
effective, approved methods that are recommended by well known and
respected Canadian researchers for about $0.03 each.
 
Frankly, if I see another SPAM here about that thing, I'm going to
forward it directly to Consumer & Corporate Affairs, the department
that deals with such.
