That could be why I did not find any honey?
:-D
-
what did you set them up in a deep or a couple mediums?
-
Duck, it suprised me that they all fit into a 5 gallon bucket that wa powered by the home depot bucket shop vacs. LOL
-
I heard rumor of a beek in CT who does a lot of yellow jacket removals. He uses a bee vac and then freezes them. Then sells them to a lab for their venom. Anyone else heard of such a thing?
-
I've got a good Bud here that sells them for venom...makes a good living from it.

Well I'm gonna tell y'all that the stings I received from being a nice guy and helping an old man out we're painful. I guess I'm a wuss cause they hurt for a few hours. Completely not something I'm wanting to do again

Selling them for cash would be the only reason I would not gas them. I did not know you could sell them jokers. I gassed a few this summer.
