Wouldn't drops trap your drones or at least funnel them into easily roastable clumps?
The cur foretells the knell of parting day; The loafing herd winds slowly o'er the lea; The wise man homeward plods; I only stay to fiddle-faddle in a minor key.

Things are laid back in Unidenland. And may the road ahead be lid with dreams and tomorrows. Which are lid with dreams. Also.

Just use Ultralisks instead of the Baneling Nests, so you dont waste minerals.
