Agree, but also a warning!!! If you use too much suction, you will also
end up with massive amounts of alarm pheromone being released.
We've been sucking up bees for research sampling for 30 years. My first
design was aimed at lots of bees, fast. Big mistake!!! I used the
resultant pictures showing blankets of bees on ME and hasty exits (RUN!! -
fortunately I was a lot slimmer and faster then) to illustrate the point
that small procedural mistakes in sampling can make a world of differ in
the outcome.
