Dear Bee Dryers: In a message last week I gave some tips on drying bees with CASCADE dtergent, then EtOH, etc. I am not sure what or how much I said about rinsing the CASCADE off the bees (water and a kitchen strainer) but this is very important. Otherwise the hairs mat down from the detergent/gunk mixture! I suspect if someone tried it they already figured this out... Cheers, Jim Whitfield
