With all the hoopla about miniscule amounts of
contaminants in our honey, what kind of contamination
are we introducing into the hive with puffs of Glade?
Just using sprays of sugar water scented with oils of
mint, vanilla, or whatever seems bad enough in my
thinking.  How long does this stuff persist in the
hive?  Can it be detected by our now advanced
diagnostics and the honey labled contaminated?

Thinking new things are good "if" they are thoroughly
investigated and proved noncontaminating.  Don't want
to end up with all my summer's honey production good
for nothing but bee feed the next spring.
