        I guess everyone's milage varies, but the one time I used water in
a spray bottle on a 100+ day, my daughter got it twice in the head and I
had to run like hell. I've also killed bees with smoke trying to chase
them out of a super, ended up using the bee brush.
 
        Finally after 3 summers and one bear, I got my first crop of 23
pounds. It's in my kitchen in a 5 pound bucket that I got from the local
donut shop for $1.00. It crystalized so I've got to stick it in the
battub.  Now i have to figure out what to do with it and what to put it
in...never got this far, so never thought about it. 8-}
