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...

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.

      I use it by choice but only for specific tasks that I have forgotten and it's quicker to ask then spend time wasted finding a decent answer on Google or coding a certain language. I prefer to use it. I do think that as it gets integrated into everything, when we eventually fully rely on it, I'm talking new gens not older gens like me, that we won't think for ourselves, I mean we will become lazy thinkers, lazy logical answer to problem which will go badly. But if we don't become fully dependant, we might be OK but I don't think personally we are going to be OK, not for the newer generations. Unless they advance in that space to the next level of intelligence where it can work out its own problems and create ideas for itself.

      O&O ShutUp10 3.1.1104 by Razvan Serea O&O ShutUp10 offers a simple yet effective way to take control of your Windows privacy. It provides access to almost 50 privacy-related tweaks, most of them hidden or not easily accessible to the average computer users. Using a very simple interface, you decide how Windows 10/11 should respect your privacy by deciding which unwanted functions should be deactivated. Using ShutUp10 you can easily disable Windows Defender, turn off telemetry, disable peer-to-peer updates, turn off Wi-Fi Sense, disable automatic Windows updates, turn off and reset Cortana and more. ShutUp10 allows you to create a System Restore point before you apply any changes, so that you can revert your system at any time if you run into problems. O&O ShutUp10 is entirely free and does not have to be installed – it can be simply run directly and immediately on your PC. And it will not install or download retrospectively unwanted or unnecessary software, like so many other programs do these days! O&O ShutUp10 Free and Premium The latest version brings O&O ShutUp10 Premium, expanding the app’s long-standing privacy controls with automatic enforcement of user-defined settings. Instead of manually rechecking options after every Windows update, users can set their preferred privacy configuration once—or apply recommended settings in a single click—and the tool continuously monitors them in the background. If Windows 10 or 11 re-enables disabled features or introduces new data collection paths, Premium restores the chosen settings automatically without user intervention. The free version remains available and fully functional for manual adjustments, offering the same core privacy controls for Windows. However, the Premium tier is aimed at users who want long-term, hands-off protection, adding automatic reapplication after updates, ongoing monitoring, and optional notifications to ensure privacy settings remain consistent over time. O&O ShutUp10 3.1.1104 changelog: Added “Show Differences” button in the overview panel “Don’t show again” option for the restore point prompt Ctrl+F keyboard shortcut for search/filter functionality Detection and linking of system-wide and user-specific setting associations Automatic search while typing PREM: Option to preserve notification counters and timestamps across application restarts PREM: Reset blocked settings button in the Settings dialog PREM: Informational message when no settings are blocked PREM: Update check can also be triggered from the menu PREM: Notification deduplication and activity log summary feature Improved L005 “Disable Windows Location Service”: Version-specific split (up to Windows 11 23H2) and new variant for Windows 11 24H2+ L001 (Disable Location): Added Night Light warning to the description in all languages Search now detects setting IDs even when ID display is disabled and offers to enable it Detection and removal of Copilot/AI desktop apps in RecallTerminator Optimized High DPI support PREM: Reset button is now only enabled when blocked items exist – setting IDs are shown in the confirmation dialog PREM: Updated tray icons with higher-resolution versions PREM: Activity Log timestamps now use localized date and time formats PREM: Tray icon status now uses OK/Warning indicators and localized tooltips PREM: Recall folder detection switched to service-based detection PREM: Copilot uninstallation now provides UI feedback and improved verification Fixed Description text was not displayed correctly for the last item and disappeared when clicking the scrollbar Crash when clicking a search result heading or the […] button PREM: Installation path is now correctly preserved during upgrades PREM: Tray icon was not reliably removed when exiting the application PREM: Main window was not displayed correctly in single-instance mode PREM: Incorrect display of the & symbol in tray icon tooltips on Windows 10 PREM: Fixed notification flooding after sleep/standby PREM: Dashboard was not refreshed after applying recommended settings during onboarding PREM: Progress bar was not reset after deleting Recall folders PREM: Fixed service startup failures PREM: Fixed incorrect drift detection when Automatic Protection was disabled PREM: Notifications now correctly count all deviating settings when protection is enabled PREM: Registration Wizard was shown after sleep/standby despite a valid license Download: O&O ShutUp10 3.1.1104 | 76.4 MB (Freeware) Download: O&O ShutUp10 32-bit | ARM64 View: O&O ShutUp10 Home Page | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
