I see you broke out the old sawzall on this one. We noticed at Home Depot this morning, a battery powered multi-tool. I was just wondering how long the batteries hold out. Just how many cut outs and swarms did you do so far this year?

The band board was much thicker than usual. Even my buddy Trace commented how thick it was. The multi tool did most of the work.

Somewhere around 140, hives and swarms combined.
