Thing about that, you have to have a source for the dry ice.  I would love to use it, but we are so far back in the giggle weeds that nobody carries it for sale.  I know Pensacola doesn't have a source and I'm not too sure about Mobile.  Hardly ever get up to Montgomery.  All three are the same distance from me  -  90 miles.

Dry ice would be great for treating wet supers for moth and beetle.  Would do a pretty good job of eliminating hot colonies of bees too.

Mike  Bored to death because we can't watch the cotton grow - our main entertainment source.
