Don't work a cold dry swarm thats been stuck out overnight without gloves.

Had two yesterday, after taking about 10 hits to my bare hands on the 1st one I broke down and put gloves on for the 2nd.



Learned me they did.

i did one last year and posted the pictures of my gloves.  looked like a prickly bush.   grin  wouldn't have done it in bad weather but it was on some farm equipment that needed to be used.  probably the nastiest swarm i have ever collected!
