Drain? Don't need no Stnking drain! Be a man! Pull off the

Hopefully those bees just moved in and will be easy to get back out.
I've had a few cut-outs that turned into nightmares
I greatly prefer catching swarms like my brother and I did this year -- leave
an old hive out and have the bees move in. Much less hassle.

A bee keeper in a small town near the UF Med School came in to the clinic and
was diagnoses with lymphocytic leukemia. Treatment was ineffective and he was
sent home to die.
Probably because of his declining health, he fell or knocked over a bee hive
and got bitten so many times the ambulance

In my new nokian, I think one of the regular plugs would have been fine,
but they spooked me by saying it could not be fixed. So I ordered the

1/4 of the way in from the shoulder, so a plug would have worked just fine.

Nails don't fly out, philips screwdrivers don't even fly out, but once the head
is gone they can get pushed in.

After all, as the head wears off I would expect it’s even less likely to come
out, as less mass would

Use great care around bees. Almost all bee colony's are now invaded with
Africanized bees, well known as "killer bees". They are VERY aggressive
when messed with, and quite aggressive when not messed with.
