Bee suit



I wanted to have a good bee suit that I felt protected in so that I could go into the hive with confidence and therefore calmly. My cobbled together suit was hot, the wrong color, difficult to put on and give not much feeling of security. If you couldn't tell, the makeshift suit is on the left. On the right is the new Ultra Breeze suit. I read online multiple discussions regarding bee suits, and consistently, the Ultra Breeze was considered the best, albeit expensive. What sold me was one keepers comment that he hasn't been stung once with this suit. Now at least I can calmly focus on the task of inspecting the hive.
