Hole in my veil, repair?

[kronkie]

Hi all,

Went to see how my girls were doing today and a couple of bees got into my jacket by a hole in the veil, is there any way of repairing the hole.

I dont know how the hole got there but if there (I phoned a beek and he thinks that maybe it came from lighting the smoker) but it seems a very expensive hole if it cannot be repaired.

Any sugestions will be very welcome.

Thanks in advance.

If you contact one of the big bee clothing suppliers they can tell you if they offer a veil repair service,I had one of my veils fixed last year.

In all seriousness I have a veil with a repair to a nail hole being accomplished with some rather fetching pink nail varnish ,still using it years later .
The veil not the nail varnish Doc. Save you asking for clarification
