ok the winter gear i agree on, but after that point i would say get a large bucket coat the inside with honey and sit it there. the next morning get the gear on and put a lid on it, do until you are bee-less.
or take soem circrackers to celebrate the 4th and blowem up. i suggest using the gear again, tie some black cats to a long stick, lite it, hold in bee's and, boom, or take some smoke bombs if you want to be original >_>
