What do you guys use on your hands when they get loaded with stinger hairs from shaking a lot of packages? Or anything where you get a large amount of stinger hairs in your hands through your gloves?

Saw this in the Dadant Queen section, https://www.dadant.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=1267 Anyone mind telling me what its used for??
All I see is pens @ Michael's, the little jars of marking paint is what I am looking for. Not the pens.
Does anyone remember the paint that used to come in a bottle kind of like fingernail polish. And more importantly, where it is available from now??
All I can seem to find are the pens......:doh:
Then use a division board and keep brood raised in the top w/ cell bars so they will work the cells, and leave a laying queen in bottom. Raise the brood as needed to keep workers in the top super.
Rob brood from other hives and leave it queenless all the time.
For shaking bees 2 stock queen yard get deeps and cut a hole in the long side that you will be able to get a jar of syrup on and the funnel in. Then screen up the sides like u would a 3-4lb package.
It's not.
You can make a really good grafting needle out of hay-bailing wire too.
I like those way better than any store bought ones, plus that's what i learned on so I'm kinda biased.
It prolly would, but it usually used to describe larger pests in my experience.
LOL, was he looking for the queen?????
I truly HATE working a Russian hive for that one reason.
I can 9/10 time find an Italian easily, but those Russians are **** near IMPOSSIBLE for me to...
Coons, possums, skunks and almost all varmints LOVE it.
Honey as well as brood.

My baby Jazzy!!
Looking for 10frame Deep Supers w/ frames.
Preferably in the SouthEast.
Ive always broken a pine tree limb and used the needles as a brush for brushing off grafing frames. Works better than those brushes u buy too imo.
If u do graft to big tho, you may have a Virgin hatched out early gnawing down all your other cells..........
JoeMoe = 2 deeps a queen excluder on bottom of one and screen wire on bottom of other. Nail/staple or however u wanna attach um, just make sure they on there good.
Screen box on bottom, stack...
IF u can see eggs I wouldn't worry about finding her, unless u wanna shake some bees or w/e. Also do a Google image search for queens so u know exactly what ya looking for. Generally i keep a eye out...
Isn't this a contraceptive????????????:cool:
This makes me LOL and want to punch someone in the face @ the same time........
GL on acceptance!
Can treat with Terramycin iirc...
Leave the workers n there, pullthe cork(if its a wooden cage) and wedge the cage and the middle 2 frames of the brood cluster. If its a wooden cage make sure the wire side is exposed.
Get the JeoMoe!!!
Is the brood super wall2wall brood??
Drop some pollen/honey down n the sidewalls in bottom and fill the rest out n brood.
