Title: Is Bee Quick as good as Bee Go?
Post by: OzBuzz on January 04, 2011, 07:36:23 PM
G'day Guys,

From what i have found out so far i can't buy Bee Go in Australia, i also believe it can't be airfreighted... Bee Quick from what i understand is natural and can be airfreighted... are the two as effective as each other? If push comes to shove i will purchase Bee Quick from the USA and have it air freighted here..

Kind regards

I have used both in the past.  I noticed I had to use a little more Bee Quick than I did with Bee Go.  I dont use either now.  I only use a commercial backpack leaf blower.  I cant stand the running eye and nose using the other stuff.  No thanks.

Bee go seems to work a little better but if you are using for cut out in domiciles I would stick with bee quick...much nicer to work with and the property owners are less likely to complain.

Buy one bottle of each and you will forever use bee quick. Unless your wife kills you for spilling bee go in her car and she has to scrap it, since the stink lasts forever.
I keep a half dozen bottles of bee quick at all times. I don't want bee go within a mile of me if I can help it.

I don't know about bee go, but I hear it is horrid. Bee Quick and Honey Robber are not too bad with a light scent of cotton candy (candy floss) and vomit. (I used honey robber this year with pretty good results)

Bee Go smell is BEYOND horrid. The ingredient label will encourage most users to switch to Bee Quick if the smell doesn't. I buy Bee Quick by the gallon and let members of our bee club use it along with a fume board for free.
