Extract from "Beekeeping" March 2007
To banish bee stings!
An old beekeeper claims to have banished the fear of being stung!
When working with his bees, he uses 'Bounce' tumble drier sheets, available in most supermarkets. He simply pins a couple of small sheets of 'Bounce' to his bee suit and the 'sting' problem no longer exists. It appears that the bees dislike the smell of this product so much that they leave the beekeeper strictly alone. And when his beekeeping work is done, and he goes into his bee house or home to change his clothes, they do not follow.
If stings trouble you, why not 'Bounce' the bees away?
