That was my mean hive last year, I've said it before and I'll say it again... My mean hives go down river  ;) 8)

I guess now you'll need to make a distinction between your "hot" hives and your "mean" hives.

Hope you and your bees stay fire-free.

I have a ventilated suit and have yet to be stung through it.  It does have some weight to it but I'll take the weight over being nailed!

I have an Ultra Breeze bee suit, the coverall style.  It is sting proof, and it is cooler than most bee suits.  I have ventilated jacket from Mann Lake and it is a good suit also.  It has larger, and I think more durable zippers than does Ultra Breeze.  If I had it to do over, I probably would go with Mann Lake and save some bucks.

Thanks lazy,
I looked into Mann Lake and they have two models of vented suit- ProVent and Vented, Same price, do you know the difference?
