<< Given the simplicity of sticky board monitoring, and the vital

Allen,

I cant speak for everyone on this, but I can at least give a few reasons why
people dont use them. Some really have never heard of them. Others still dont
know how to use them correctly, I know one fellow that cut them down to fit
his bottom boards--you can imagine the mess.  I know several people that will
not buy pollen collector or other suitable woodware to hold the board.

Just a few thoughts.
