In store buying success!

I came in to buy materials for protecting my bee hives from a bear who took 100 percent of my honey from my hives….. !
I bought materials to surround my hive with 3 rows of metal wiring and a .50 Jule power box to get the bears attention should the bear return.
The young man who helped me was knowledgeable about products I needed and found me everything I needed that your store had in supply ( fyi he also had bees on his family property!) Other t than cost… it was a wonderful visit and he was an A+ employee!
