At the moment I wash my own bee suit at home in our family washing machine. My wife does not handle any of my bee clothing nor does it get put in with any other clothes.
Question - is this enough separation between my bee clothes and by definition traces of venom and my wife. I remember reading on here about Mike Palmer and I think his daughter? and the problems that ensued due to exposure to small traces of venom over a prolonged period.
Also have any papers ever been published studying any possible link between exposure to small doses of bee venom and possible sensitization?
