Has anyone trid the product being advertised as of late?
        A couple of years ago i nhad a brain storm, If I used a spray to
mask alarm or any other (beekeepers B.O.) odors perhaps I wouldn't have
to asphixiate myself with that awful smoker. Well the wintergreen / water
solution worked just fine. However I quickly realized it just wasn't calm
bees I wanted. When the top bars are loaded with bees or the edges of the
super are loaded and ne wishes to replace the overhead brood box it's
nice to be able to get the bees to move. Of course there other reasons to
want them to move also. Well I'm still SMOKING myself.
