This was my first year of beekeeping...I decided to use a fume board today and it worked great. I had to use the "stinky stuff" because the other stuff I ordered hadn't arrived yet. So I need to know is there anything that gets this smell off after you use it?  How do I go about storing it? I regret using it because of the stink and next year may go another route, but for now it smells like sweaty dirty feet and I don't know what to do with it. LOL....newbees gotta luv 'em.

   Ummm.  Good luck with that.  I almost used it once.  Spilled a little  (maybe a drop or two) on my hands and was glad the family was gone for a week...  Wish I knew about the toothpaste though!
Everyone said it couldn't be done. But he with a chuckle replied, "I won't be one to say it is so, until I give it a try."  So he buckled right in with a trace of a grin.  If he had a worry he hid it and he started to sing as he tackled that thing that couldn't be done, and he did it.  (unknown)

 I would put it out in the sun for awhile and see if that helps...
