That hive looks good and by the way, which of the catalogs did you find that SHBminator and how much did it run?

The SHBminator was purely a home grown thing, It took me 16 years to develop and I guess I've got somewhere around $500,000 in it. The accessories (AK47, ROTC training, and parasol) not included. :-D

Do you think they make a model good enough to knock the mites off bees as they fly into the hive?

Well he (my son Ian) swears he can shoot the pecker off a flea at 100 yards so SHB on the wing shouldn't pose too big a problem :-D
