What's a better way to find and catch the queen (unmarked) in a normal
colony (i.e., two deeps full of bees and brood)?  My straightforward
approach of pulling frames and looking them over, one by one, doesn't
work very well for me.  My eyeglasses get covered with sweat so I can't
see, and I get covered with mad bees stinging through my bee-suit, before
I find the old lady.
