Washing a bee suit

That?s a consequence of allowing the bees to make their own queens and not relying on commercial queens bred for particular traits.

My bees are (for the most part) very docile, and I haven't purchased a queen since I bought my first two packages. I always let my bees requeen themselves.

Mine are too Regan for the most part. To be fair, there are some days that the shorts will not do and some of the bees will be in a pesky mood as Beemaster2 described above. On a day like that I will change from shorts to loose fitting dry fit material pants. Even these are much better than jeans or some of the other type pants for cooler comfort. Their again the fan is a huge asset. But shorts are my presence when working 'my hives' when the weather gets HOT...
