Two hundred pages on temperament, timing, and correct approach. Diagrams. A whole chapter on smoke. You read it twice. The bees have not read it, will not read it, and are not aware that it exists. Somewhere in the grass right now is a glove you did not stop to pick up.
A shirt for beekeepers who prepared thoroughly and were overruled immediately.
Wear it when: someone asks whether you've done any research.
— Garment-dyed ringspun cotton (Comfort Colors 1717). Printed to order. Relaxed fit.
