Anyone ever try it, does it work Effectively?
Just extracted some honey from hives and had a good amount of loose come. Thought it might work what say you?

A guy was just in my office this morning. He's been raising bees the last couple of years. He's had some trouble with mites. He seems to have cleared that up until yogi came a calling. He tried electric fence. When that didn't work, he started playing heavy metal music 24/7. He lives out in the country. He said believe it or not, seems to be working. Yogi doesn't seem to like it.
Remember as a kid we played army and you gave up the fort so the other side got it? Of course you don't. Little kids aren't that stupid.

Yogi has been around my neighborhood..... I couldn't get away with the music it would attract the meth heads.

The guy said once yogi gets a taste of honey, an electric fence doesn't stop him. But, the heavy metal seems to have. It would stop me! Yogi visiting is better than meth heads. No telling what they would do.

Never used wax nest but knew an oldtimer that used paper wasp and hornet's nest in a hole to soak up the lure and give eye appeal.
