[Pic] Cleaning your BBQ for Summer


Recommended Posts

So I'm using my bbq this weekend... so I thought I'll clean it up..

I have known there are bees coming from under the cover so I thought I'd kill them, obviously...

so heres the BBQ in question

Now I know these bombs aren't for bees and that but I thought I'll suffocate/smoke them out. So here is the weapon of choice and delivery system

I thought I was pretty smart hehehe designed to be easily manoevered under the cover of darkness...

so then I release the weapon of buzz destruction..

OMFG! the sound from under the cover was incredible!!! You could hear it 3m away easy...

Then I ran like the clappers....

Coming back few mins later to see the death toll...

Was at least 20mm deep mass grave

I continued to remove the cover and to light the bbq to give it a clean when I noticed some fatty looking substance on the top of the

side shelf thing....

Bit weird.. I clean it before I put it away for winter and no way was there fat there so I begun to wonder......

NO..... it can't be could it?

I slowly removed the rest of the cover only to find the HQ.

I did something very similar to that. I had a small wooden tool shed out back with a huge nest in it. So i drilled a hold in the side and popped 3 insect bombs in there. They most defenitly do the trick, although I think 3 might have been overkill.

To bad you were un aware of the nice honey comb they had made, that could have been a win win situation for you.

What was he supposed to do?

you can call anyone that keeps bees (for business or pleasure of course, and theres plenty of them), they will come to your place for free, put them to sleep and relocate them to their own premises.

They do it because:

1) a healthy hive is valuable and not easy to find

2) they produce honey, wax and lots of other very lucrative products.

3) they get something for free, so everyone is happy... the bees included.

So... what he just did was NOT a good idea. :cry:

Have you ever seen that documentary showing what would happen in the world if bees got extinct??

At the moment entire hives are dying from an illness we cant still understand, all over the world, they are very much in danger of extinction.

now, if they were wasps, that would be slighlty different..

The majority of honey bees are not dangerous and this despicable act was truly unnecessary. Wouldn't it have been so much better to have pictures of a bee keeper actually removing the colony? I'm guessing the person was after; shock and awe. People that do these types of things are really capable of much worst and most likely have.

    • The site is pretty sparse on features / tech specs. Can I plug it into a PC/hone/Switch via USB-C and use it as an external display? If so, what's the virtual resolution of the screen, the refresh rate, PPI of the image etc? Is the text crisp enough to use for coding at say 12pt? Is it good enough for playing dark games, like say Path of Exile 2? How about fast games like car racing games? Just how do they expect anyone to order this thing without giving out all this info?
    • I call complete bs on this - no way your average joe / jane is using AI.
