Was stung 45 times by one colony and probably about the same by her daughter's colony next door yesterday. I walked away and put thick gloves on when they started stinging, so not many got through. I counted the stings on the gloves after inspecting the first colony and there were about 45! The time has come to get rid of both colonies I think. I know you use petrol, but whats the procedure? Is the gear still useable afterwards - frames and boxes etc. Presumably, you do not do it with supers on.
