Hey rober, what is bee quick?

Rober, you can order bee quick by the gallon from the ad on the right side of the page.

If the clerk isn't familiar with gallons, ask for Keith.

thanks idee!
jen-bee quick is one of several products that's sprayed on a fume board which then placed on top of supers to drive the bees downward & out of the super when harvesting honey. bee quick has an almond smell. be warned though, it damages paint so careful around painted surfaces.  i have no comparison for bee b gone, except that it's rank. i got a fume board with some used gear that still had some bee b gone residue. it's nasty.

Bee Go will "gag a maggot".  That is a smell you don't want to get in your vehicle.  I had the misfortune of spilling some in the trunk of a car.  It took months but ended up getting rid of the smell by putting a bag of charcoal briquets in the trunk.

Honey Robber is another, stuck a bottle in my pump house and forgot. A short while latter I told my wife something has crawled into that pump house and died.
