Hi All,
Today was my first time collecting some bee samples. The books referred to “sweeping them up into a match box”....Girls not happy with my technique nor willing to hang around in the matchbox while I figured it.
On a flash of inspiration I got hold of the Dyson, put on the narrowest attachment, taped on a plastic bag where it normally opens to empty, then sucked them up with good control. Opened the Dyson shaking them into the plastic bag...job done.. and SHMBO none the wiser
