    You are too young to buy brake cleaner. They card people buying brake cleaner these days.

    Besides, that sinkhole had dozens of hives, and probably thousands of bees. It would be hard to get them all.

    Doesn't tobacco smoke tranquilize bees? maybe a couple of locals could hang around smoking while you dive?

    You buy the brake cleaner, I'll take care of the wasps.

    If video games did anything other than rot my brain, they atleast quickened up my response time on the trigger.

    Wasp & Hornet spray does the same thing.

    It's bad luck to be superstitious.

    if they are honey bees (not the african variety). As the proud new owner of a backyard apiary i can atest that a hives worth of bees has value. A swarms worth (half a hive or so) of bees is well over $100...Bill

    Please don’t use brake cleaner; it is composed of regulated substances (chlorinated solvents) not suitable for introduction into groundwater. You would possibly be knowingly and willfully causing a release of TCE to groundwater. TCE in gw make DEP not happy. Use commercially available hornet spray as mentioned above or just let em Bee.

    So John, is it still OK to fill a coke bottle with gasoline and shove it neck first into the hole?
