Cutris Atkinson spoke:
I am new to beekeeping also.(2 yr) I have been stung only once for not
wearing gloves.
I was holding a frame with my little pinky finger up in the air and one of
those little girls thought it was a flag waving in the wind.:) She popped
me good.
My advice is just do not squeeze the bees.
No trouble-go at it easy with smoke.
