Now I am only jealous that I did not think of this first!:beatdeadhorse5:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Bee-pheromone..._Bee_Keeping&hash=item27bb757ab2#ht_500wt_950

Just read the advert

Could at least have spelt pheromone correct on the tubes!

But then again, is he talking about bees or humans with the referece to MOTHERS????:willy_nilly:

Bee pheromones 6ml. On this auction you have only one chance to buy original, natural and proven bee pheromones. Just one drop can significantly delay the feeling the absence of the mother as well they are ideal for the treatment of valuable new mothers. One drop on the paper will focus on the whole aggression of older bees and a new, young mother surrounded by young bees can be peacefully adopted to the family. She has time to take the smell of the beehive and fed by the bees she will gives away her pheromones telling of their presence in the beehive. Grab the opportunity and take advantage of my 15 years experience.

It is. Just not in English.

With a name like that could remotely be Italian, but more likely of Eastern European origin?

is this is wats happened to all the queens posted to Bcrazy/ Mo ?
 
noticed that they are NHS labels, looks like a bit of theft going on there. the tubes look like blood sample tubes (seen enough of them) hope they arnt second hand. didnt know you could get bee pheromone from NHS.
 
Look like the things with leaves and flowers in an oil that you use as ornaments.

Recipe... Dead bees.. add some olive oil and a touch of lemongrass and unwanted aftershave that granny gave you for Christmas.
 
All the way from nigeria by the looks of the spelling!




:cool:

"noticed that they are NHS labels, looks like a bit of theft going on there. the tubes look like blood sample tubes (seen enough of them)"

NO - they are the generic labels that come on the tubes (italian ones BTW).

NO reason why joe public can't buy them.

"All the way from nigeria by the looks of the spelling!"

the guy is obviously from EU with english as a second language.

"All a bit odd as it says on the extractor page he doesn't keep bees any more. Can't imagine anyone moving countries with several jars of pickled queens"

why not - says he came here thinking he could get work in apicolture industry (without realising we don't have one!!!!). the first picture looks like his personal bottle of bees from which he has aliquoted out into the vacutainer tubes.
