Hi All
 
Just saw your post Judy about bee gauntlets. Another option is to use
rubber gloves made for handling toxic waste. Normall these gloves are
very thick, but a French company (Jenna) makes a range with a very
thin, fingertight fit. Almost like working without gloves.
 
They have a white inner coating that stops beestings, and a glossy
yet 'sticky' outer coat which makes the bees not want to sting.
 
They are cheap.
 
Keep well
