Thank you for this informative video. What level did you upgrade your Solar Energizer to?

Thanks for the video. During winter, can I just leave it on? Or will it damage my charger?

Just a thought for you . I see just sievert bee keeper that runs a extra ground wire between each hot wire because of all the hair on the bears to help to make sure the bears touch a hot wire and a ground . Mostly on land that doesn’t have a lot of rain an having moisture in the ground so you can get a good ground to the bear . I am getting ready to do three of my bee yards . What is your thoughts on adding the extra ground wires . Thanks

The music made this very annoying to watch!

Nice 👍🏻.. great video tracking the whole process.. really cool 😎

Thanks so much! This is the most thorough and thoughtful video I've found on how to plan and erect an electric fence for a bee yard. Cheers!

Well, that's what happens when you go through your hive during a cloudy overcast day while it's probably been raining or at night. I also suggest getting a more docile bread of honey bee if you hate getting stung that much, or take up swimming instead.

for me your first photo hhhhhh good job

Very informative information. You were talking maybe adding a ground wire in between your hot wire I would highly highly highly recommend that for the reason you talked about where a animal does not always get a ground by just standing there. That is very true an I recommend it in all electric fences . Also if you don’t mind I would like to add one more thing . When setting up your yard always make your yard bigger than you think you may need because you may add hives which you talking about but the other thing is make it bigger so you have a lot of room to WORK YOUR HIVES . Like when you are pulling supers you need more room an just different reason you need more room all around your hives say a hand truck , a trailer, lawn mower. So just keep things like that on your mind. We always do things an look back later on an say why did I not do this or that . I hope you have a great season. Thanks

Great informative video. But way too many ads. 15 ads in a 30 min video is too much.

p.s. i'm in bear country

Thank you for the info. Entering into my 1st year bee keeping and I will watch all of your videos.

Can I get link also

Congrats on a well made video. I am new at beekeeping and will be setting up my bees and an electric fence this upcoming spring. You have been an immense help and I want to take this moment to thank you on a well made instructional video.

Enjoyed your video. Good luck.

Great video. I've just seen a bear 2 days ago walk by my hives so it's time to put up a fence. I've been lucky so far and I don't need my luck to run out. Thanks

Holly cow buddy, how many bees stung you on the face in that photo? You look like you went 20 rounds with Mike Tyson. I recently started keeping bees, but I had no idea a sting on the face was that bad.

this was very helpful thank you. I got a smoker from Amazon as a brand new prospective bee keeper and I wasn't sure what the plate was inside. thanks to you I now know it's the stand that keeps the fuel above the air intake once I unfolded the feet.

HI! at the end of this, you mention a link to a video, could you send me that link? thank you!

Great video. Your video was the best educational video about setting up an electric fence I've seen. This is my first year in beekeeping and this video will help me to protect my hives from bears. Thanks again for all of your work.

the most and very most exciting moment for a bee lover is when the scout bees come and then the whole swarm.. 💕💓💞

Going to start this spring. Appreciate the information. Girlfriend just purchased me a 5 session class from a local keeper for my birthday today. Class starts in February. Going to start buying gear now. Getting ready to retire!

Excellent video.... would you share a list of the thing you brought for this project?

This method has become my "go to" method for feeding sugar syrup. I rest the bags on top of a queen excluder so the bees can move freely on top of the frames. I also use a 3 inch spacer to allow room for the bag under the top cover. I wanted to ask, has anyone used this to feed honey back to the bees?

Welche Bienenrasse wird hauptsächlich bei verwendet ???...besser gesagt welche Rasse hat bei euch in der Gegend die besten Voraussetzung....? Gruss aus Deutschland ...gute Arbeit !!

I will like to make a suggestion. Have you considered using a flip open housing cover over the on / off switch? It would be a pity if that snooping bear accidentally flipped the switch off.

All good things come to an end

Great job 👏

Very cool but what's next? How long do you leave it there before you bring it home?

You mentioned this, but your energizer is way underpowered for deterring bears. You need at least the minimum joules - which is easiest to remember as being at least 1 joule. The Parmak Solar 12 is 1.2 joules and reasonably priced.

What awful music

Hello Sir i wonder what type of bees do you have if you can please reply bcs i just started with beekeeping and my finall part is to buy bees thank you

Is that worker comb or drone comb?

Shouldn’t the mesh side of the queen cage be facing towards the bottom of the brood box? I’m not sure how the the bees can feed the queen if the mesh is pushed into a frame? I’m confused.

Great video Jim! Bears just took out 3 of my hives and I was looking on how to install an electric fence. You answered all my questions in the video!

Love this. Found you through UCW & P24. Would love to start beekeeping once we purchase a house so I will be following along!

Well done. I think you missed a queen excluder ($3 - $10 plastic or metal). Although some don't use them it's nice to keep the queen from laying in the honey super. Grass or leaves can be used as a brush too and they are typically free. Just use some that are soft (typically green). The jacket I use is the ventilated 3 layer one from foxhound.com it's also available on amazon. What makes it so nice aside from the ventilation is it's longer than the others so it doesn't ride up in the back exposing your lower back when you bend over or reach for something. But it does run just over $100 by itself. I run hot so I wear shorts all year. To cover my legs I use mosquito pants that are $10 - $15 on eBay. Mosquitoes eat me alive otherwise and they keep my legs protected while working with the bees as well at least so far so good. It's like window screen made into baggy pants. They may look funny but you would be surprised how many people want to know where to get them once they find out how well they work especially for the mosquitoes. P.S. Love the repurposed bed frame for a hive stand.

Its so excellent ^3^

Any thoughts, I just got my first hive and am wanting to go this method.

Nice video! Just subbed. Thank and look forward to seeing more!
