Too embarrased to ask

[For want of a better word]

Speaking to a West Midlands Beek down the local sailing club... and he said th that ALL the beeks in his area ?Wolverhampton? use IRON BREW in a spray to calm and collect swarms!

Please someone tell me he was winding me up... because I am too embarrased to ask!!

Best thing in the world for a hangover. Never tried it on Bees though.

Irn Bru - A vaguely yellow liquid... smells a bit odd sometimes... a bit like Pish!

I think he is taking the Pish - but nothing would surprise me!

You don't need to spray anything on a swarm.

Vaguely yellow? It's bright bloody orange!

The Bon Accord equivalent was Dazzle as I recall?

I am aghast!

Surely even in the wilds of the Midlands everyone know that the only two choices for spraying a swarm (if they won't come quietly) are pink gin or brandy alexander!

You do like the gin, don't you lol

 

[madasafish]

The only gin that works is in a blue bottle..

I'd see a doctor if I were you!

Water spray is an effective and recommended way of settling a swarm before shaking it into a skep.
Irn Bru would have the advantage of being sweet, and would give the swarm a bit of nourishment. Why not try it?

nitrogin hydrogin or oxygin?
