[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...

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.

    • Can you read? I've said I'm willing to pay more for a notchless (no notch) 3:2 screen.
    • Not even an OLED display on the laptops. Also it seems that the laptop design isn't the same as the Surface Ultra model. Looks like bargain bin at high prices.
    • make your own notch - it's not that hard
    • VirtualBox 7.2.10 by Razvan Serea VirtualBox is a powerful x86 and AMD64/Intel64 virtualization product for enterprise as well as home use. Targeted at server, desktop and embedded use, it is now the only professional-quality virtualization solution that is also Open Source Software. Presently, VirtualBox runs on Windows, Linux, macOS, and Solaris hosts and supports a large number of guest operating systems including but not limited to Windows (NT 4.0, 2000, XP, Server 2003, Vista, 7, 8, Windows 10 and Windows 11), DOS/Windows 3.x, Linux (2.4, 2.6, 3.x, 4.x, 5.x and 6.x), Solaris and OpenSolaris, OS/2, OpenBSD, NetBSD and FreeBSD. Some of the features of VirtualBox are: Modularity. VirtualBox has an extremely modular design with well-defined internal programming interfaces and a client/server design. This makes it easy to control it from several interfaces at once: for example, you can start a virtual machine in a typical virtual machine GUI and then control that machine from the command line, or possibly remotely. VirtualBox also comes with a full Software Development Kit: even though it is Open Source Software, you don't have to hack the source to write a new interface for VirtualBox. Virtual machine descriptions in XML. The configuration settings of virtual machines are stored entirely in XML and are independent of the local machines. Virtual machine definitions can therefore easily be ported to other computers.

    • OK, now ask yourself how are they going to enforce that law? By requiring every single adult to prove their age and provide their legal identity documents to an UNREGULATED 3rd party company that already has a long track record of multiple data breaches. Not to mention, parliament have voted AGAINST this ban, twice, and Starmer is going ahead anyway. So, where's the democracy here, because that looks like dictatorship to me. The solution here is parental responsibility, not government control. Run some public service announcements on TV and UK social media teaching parents how to setup parental controls. That's already been proven to actually work. But the, this is not and has NEVER been about keeping kids safe. It's about control and monitoring. Watching what you're doing online and controlling what you can see and what you can say.
