This should be fun.

A co-worker, many years ago, decided that it would be a good idea to get rid of a bee’s nest by spraying it with our CO2 fire extinguisher. The spray would just freeze the bees, right?
Not only did he end up with a lot of annoyed bees buzzing around, but the company had to pay about $200 to have the extinguisher refilled. Management was not amused.

Not sure Dusty has the right solution, but extermination should be a last resort. We need all the bees we can save.

Dusty is assuming he can still sprint like he used to. Assuming he first makes it to the bottom of the ladder in a dignified way.

Don’t call an exterminator. Call a beekeeper.

If they ARE bees. They could be wasps or yellow jackets! That’s even worse!
