The Three Amigos ride again! On this adventure we head back to a location that Charlie and I had visited just weeks before to remove a hive but they had vacated the premises prior to our arrival and we simply removed the comb, the link is below. This time, a swarm had moved into the same spot and we were there to remove the bees, and then transfer them to the homeowners other house. The bees had quite the attitude when we first arrived, but they quickly calmed down and continue to be well behaved bees. Thanks for taking the time to watch. God's peace. Mr. Ed

Y'all are too funny!! Yep, Kenny was the man. That was a text book removal!! Great ending as well!! Good conversation with the homeowners.
Look everyone, It's World Famous Mike Barry leaving a comment on my video, I'm so honored. Thanks so much for taking the time out from your busy schedule to comment on one of the little guys channel....you are my hero. God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
Hey Mike have you ever noticed how happy bees get after being treated for varroa mites

@Andrew Klahold Why u had to comment twice? I know it was lag when u pressed comment button because that have happened me too and then u pressed again so YT is little stupid and posted it twice so how about u delete another one of these comments thanks.
@@OccasusRaven I did what?
Lots of bees wow they built fast that's great video good time Charlie wecking Ralph great cutting as always mr ed great video GOD bless the three amigos thats great funny
Thanks so much for your blessings and kind words, they are greatly appreciated. Until the next time, God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
And I get such a kick when you say, Well Folks IT AIN'T THERE NO MORE........🤣😂👍🏾🤝🏾🇺🇸💪🏾
That saying originally comes from a video about New Orleans showing all the things, mostly businesses, that have disappeared over the years. The video would show the structure in it's hay day, and then an empty lot or different business in the same location followed by those infamous words, "It ain't there no more!" God's peace Reggie.
Mr. Ed
@@JeffHorchoff Right on Mr. Ed, I'm Tracking watch you're saying. I appreciate your reply and all of your Content you give to us to learn from and enjoy. Peace and Blessings to you and your Family Mr. Ed, and we'll talk with you a little later on........🙏🏾🤝🏾🇺🇸💪🏾🙏🏾
You keep my hope alive, every time you say "by the grace of God"
Keep watching and I'll continue saying it. God's peace Kariie.
Mr. Ed
Thanks Mr Ed And Charlie nice watching God bless
Goodness, these houses on stilts are like prime bee real estate it seems. 3 hives in just a couple months. Wow.
When you smile so much that’s how the bees can sting you inside your mouth like that. 😆 Keep smiling anyway. God’s peace to you.
Swarms, when they are large enough, can really build a hive very quickly...almost over night. The link below is a good example of how quick a swarm can build comb. Thank you so much for your blessings, kind words, and taking the time to watch. And remember, besides the 500 videos I've already posted, I post a brand new one every Friday. Hope to hear from you soon. God's peace.

the home owners are about to find out how much fun bees can be.
That they are. God's peace Robert.
Mr. Ed
The best part, and what keeps me coming back, is the positive attitude of everyone in the video. Even when things are NOT going great, everyone is still up-beat. Thanks. you keep making more, I'll keep watching. Jon
Doesn't chewing that fiberglass insolation hurt the bees?
You know... I don't think anyone watching these bees and how they work could deny the existence of our wonderful God.
Because they do not ingest it, only cut it and move it out of the way, it is not harmful to them. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Think we need to start adding "World famous" to Mr Ed, Good Time Charlie and Wreckit Ralph !!
OMGosh, I had to go get my sunglasses before I could look at those new bee suits! Hahahah!
All three of you make this so fun to watch!
So glad you enjoyed watching, thank you for that and your kind words. Also, I hope you will check out more of my bee wrangling/ bee rescues adventures and let me know what you think of them. By the way, I post a new video every Friday morning, and I look forward to hearing from you again soon. God's peace Nicole.
Mr. Ed
WHAT A DEAL I AM ONLY A DAY LATE 😃👈👀....Thanks TO Jeff & crew of 3 awesome guy's 🙏👈 👍
Shoe🇺🇸
I truly love watching you, Charlie and Ralph wrangling those pretty little ladies into a hive and helping them do what they were born to do.
Thanks 'Guys' for all the care you take in handling the bees. God bless yall!🐝🐝🐝🐝
The three amigos has done it again! Love the video! Love from the Icy Sweden!
So very happy you enjoy the fun, we are very happy to show the way us Southern boys wrangle bees. Thanks for watching, and stay warm. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Mr. Ed you got some bad bo-tox done.. i wouldn't go back to them,.. they only did one side. hahahaha
Ouch! But it didn't stop ya. And now there's two more bee keepers in the world to boot!
Awesome job!!! Mr. Ed has a "Banana Lip"!!!!! Thanks y'all!!
Great video, enjoyed so much. God bless you all.
Thank you so much for your blessings and for watching, it is all greatly appreciated. Until the next one, God's peace Walter.
Mr. Ed
Mr Ed, why Don't you just get a headset with a light on it so you don't have to stick the flashlight in your mouth all the time? BEE nice to hear u talk why you are extracting the BEE'S ! 🐝🐝🐝
I've tried 4 different head lamps, but not one of them has been able to place the light exactly where I need it to be, so I keep going back to holding the flashlight with my teeth. God's peace Ron.
Mr. Ed
When the bees chew thru the rubber bands, isn’t it a suicide mission because of the snap of the broken rubber band
It's doubtful that the bee that actually cuts the band is injured, more than likely it's the one on the comb that the rubber band hits. Life if hard on bees. God's peace Larry.
Mr. Ed
Thank you Jesus! 😊 🙏🐝🇦🇺
Those newbies are lucky to have your time. The Three Amigos for tutors!
Wreck-It Ralph is my favorite!
Three weeks?!? Whoever came up with the saying "Rome was not built in a day" wasn't a bee person. Welcome back Ralph!
Yes, Mike Barry is World Famous.
I'm from the Netherlands and even here we watch all his videos.
I'm forwarding your comment to him, he's going to love it. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Great video! Your landlords don't just have a bee problem, they have a spreading black mold problem too. I'm surprised you guys were willing to breathe in those spores for such a long time. Black mold kills.
There sure was a mold issue, but because we were outside and not in a confined area, I did not feel threatened by it. Thank you for your concern and for watching, it is greatly appreciated. Also, I hope you will check out more of my bee wrangling/ bee rescues adventures and let me know what you think of them. By the way, I post a new video every Friday morning, and I look forward to hearing from you again soon. God's peace Janet.
Mr. Ed
May God save the queen yah yah yah
I love how the comb has a wave in it and each subsequent piece has the exact same geometary, isn't mother nature amazing!
Another great video yall! Thank you!
THE QUEEN CATCH is one of my Favorite Parts when I watch YOU and The Dirt Rooster.......... Thank you Guys for all of the Information and Education you all put out. Be BLESSED, and be Careful Brothers........🤝🏾🇺🇸💪🏾🙏🏾
Ooohhh yummy! Every time I see such pretty pieces of comb I start looking for some fresh corn bread!
The only worry I'd have is that the bees are a little "hot" for a new beekeeper, but then the bees have clearly chosen Rick and Susan, so the best of luck to them - I bet those suits don't stay that white for long! Chickens around the beehives are great for eating small hive beetle larvae, which need to burrow in the soil to pupate, and chickens love scratching them up as tasty snacks!
I would suggest they hang a swarm trap/bait box in the location that swarms have now found three times, once they have closed up the ceiling tight and put new insulation in. It is obviously a location the swarms are drawn to, so is worth making the most of. Hang a shelf or two just-sized for a 5-frame nuc just under the ceiling in spots that swarms have used already, add a nuc in each, and let the wrangling commence!
The bees really settled down and almost immediately after transferring them, which I was grateful to see. Also, we have already talked about setting traps next spring as I am very sure we will be catching a swarm or two from this location. Rick and Susan are on the way to having dirty suits real soon. Thanks for watching. God's peace Phil.
Mr. Ed
I dont see anyone else on TH-cam that dose this in the way you do and the scale. Thank you for sharing all this Ed. Your very educational and you have all the right people helping and the Fun you have doing these videos love your spirit Ed very uplifting. God Bless you Sir.
Thank you very much for your blessings, kind words, and for taking the time to follow along with our bee wrangling adventures. Until the next one, God's peace.
Mr. Ed
I never knew bees could punch so hard,
It's the right hook, it gets me every time. God's peace Andrew.
Mr. Ed
So Geoff taught Ralph how to toss because Geoff has always been a good tosser 😂
I just watched the video with the family from St. Louis. what a great teacher you are. Adorable family. Enjoyed it.
woohoo my bees made it through Ian. They were all blowed up yesterday and MAD. Got stung in my back. Amazing bees can survive that 100 + mile per hour wind.
Sorry to hear you had to experience the storm, but very happy to hear you and your bees are well. God's peace Joey.
Mr. Ed
THE AMIGO'S, great content.
Always fun to watch
Thank you!!! 🙏 🐝
Popcorn brood....... and the Queen always hides - - - -
Thanks for sharing god bless everyone
Owwwww!!!
Just part of being a bee wrangler. Thanks for the sympathy and for watching. God's peace Marion.
Mr. Ed
Holy black mold.
"Batman, where's the bleach?" Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Better a big lip than a big ego. You guys are a hoot. Please keep makin’ more.
always good to see ralph . nice vid
I have actually got to experience a swarm once. I was at a stop light at an intersection down the street from where I live ... and I remember seeing thousands of bees flying in the air. Reminded me of an Alfred Hitchcock movie. I am just glad my windows were rolled up. Lol.
Not many people get to see a swarm in the air, consider yourself lucky. The link below, in case you did not see this video of mine, is all about a swarm of bees coming in. Thanks for watching. God's peace Susan. Mr. Ed

Hey Jeff, met you in Canton TX where you spoke! Really enjoyed it! Will be following from now on! Thanks.
What a pleasure it was to visit and speak at the conference. I met so many wonderful people and I look forward to retuning next year. Thank you for being there and introducing yourself to me. God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
Mr. Ed, throw the guys who have to repair behind you a bone and start using an oscillating multi-tool for cutting through the substrate materials instead of a jigsaw or a reciprocating saw, I'm sure DirtRooster has schooled you some on it in the past. Still loved the video and that sting on the lip, just glad it wasn't me. Look forward to the next one!
I do use an oscillating multi tool, but because we can see the joist's exact location, the jig saw was a better choice in my opinion. God's peace Tommy.
Mr. Ed
@@JeffHorchoff Thanks for the reply, I haven't seen too many of your videos and hadn't seen you use one yet. I'd like to commend you on your attitude & easy going nature, the world could use more people with your outlook on life.
i feel so happy every time i see you all have a great time do bee`s together So good Bless you to.
I have a terrible bee-phobia, but I absolutely love watching your videos. I learn so much.
So grateful you watch in spite of your fears. I have been told by many viewer who are in the same boat as you concerning your bee phobia that by watching my videos their fears are somewhat reduced. I hope the same effect will happen to you. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
@@JeffHorchoff I can agree that I am much improved due to your educational videos! I thank God for you and your channel!
9:16 Thank you Jesus.
More Ralph.............and more cowbell.
Who knows what the future will hold....we shall see. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Another very nice video and the vibe between the three amigos is so wonderful to see. Have a great weekend you all
I’m thinking that, 1st time beekeepers may not want MEAN bees!
Gonna run into a mean hive sooner or later. If your first experience is with mean bees the calm bees is a wonderful experience.
We enjoyed a seamless outro, with guests, on this episode…
As it turned out, the bees calmed down almost immediately after the transfer and continue to be that way presently. Happy bees and happy beekeepers. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Great video! You 3 men work really good together with the bees, always a blessing to watch you collect the bees. Thanks. LarryG.
Another great video. tku Lovely people.
That's a nice looking swarm, will be a great colony for those new beekeepers! That sting to the lip must have hurt! Ouch! God Bless. PS: That's a nice jacket you have there, Mr. Ed!
Now if you win this jacket when it's given away, you better play the lottery. God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
Thank you Jesus🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Wonderful for the new beekeepers starting out.🇺🇸🎉
Nice job gentlemen
Amazing how quickly they can build the comb.
Great job boys
Mr Ed, its summer and you haven't shaved ... Great to see Wreckit Ralph explaining bee behaviour. Thank you for the education x
This is the first time ever I kept my beard all year long, I think I have finally gotten used to it. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
No Wrecking Ball was needed in this Bee Removal ! Apart from Ralph : joining Mr Ed & Good Time Charlie. 🥳
Good Job Bee Troopers.
Over and Out. . . To go and get that 2nd Swarm.
Get to it : before it to makes its own Split. No Bananas were used in this Movie (maybe a Monkey Suit though,) even that didnt stop that Nailer. Ouch. Happens to us all. 🙄
🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝
Happy Beekeeping 2023
🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝
Can the Crew get Mr Ed a 40" Head Strap (no not because of his big lip or ego) but so he can properly attach a Head Torch OVER his Bee Suit. Or something similar ? Dont hold Torches with your Teeth: or you to could get Stung ! Bless.
Torch is UK term for US 'Flashlight ! 💡
Maybe you will See the Light ! I'll let myself out. 😎
Mr Ed,check your math you've known him 40 years not 30 lol
What's a few years between friends. God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
Good Time Charlie needs a pair of transition glasses and a matching shirt to complete the look. I'm always amazed at the productivity of the bees when they work together. Too bad mankind hasn't learned that
I always hold hope for mankind, but I'm not holding my breath for it. God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
Awesome. Great capture. The mailman story is priceless. Making new beekeepers one hive at a time. God Bless.
Wow, even world-famous Mike Barry dropped in. Good to see all the brethren back together. Smooth snatch of the queen.
Awesome
Hello Jeff. For some time I have watched your videos, in which you have removed colonies of bees from houses and other buildings. I have seen how on many occasions you have used a small torch to provide light, and how you have held this torch in your mouth. I have thought that it might not be very comfortable to hold the torch in this way and also that this method of holding the torch could easily damage the screen which protects your face.
In this particular bee removal I was thinking all those things again, and how easily bees could sting your face through the veil, when you hold the torch this way.
At 9:20 you collected a bee sting on your lip, and you commented is at 23:40, “I still got nailed!”
I have wondered what your thoughts are about using a head mounted flashlight? Rather than having a headlamp under your veil, if a suitable headlamp was mounted on the outside of the veil you could have the benefit of plenty of light, without the discomfort of holding a torch in your mouth, and with a much reduced possibility of being stung through the veil.
I know you have been watching for a long time, and if I remember correctly, you live in the Land Down Under. Thanks so much for your support and for taking all the time to watch. I have tried 4 different head lamps over the years, but not one of them has been able to place the light exactly where I need it to be, so I keep going back to holding the flashlight with my teeth. God's peace Wilfred.
Mr. Ed
Loved it✝️❤️
4:19 lol I was just asking about this the other day. I hope it does not hurt them in any way like how diatomaceous earth hurst other bugs but stabbing them and drying them out. Edit I would say from the large number of nests being built right next to insolation I would think it really don't hurt them.
I can't say with real certainty it does not harm the bees when they chew the insulation, but it is nothing like what diatomaceous earth does to bugs. Thanks for watching. God's peace John.
Mr. Ed
That's great!!!
The Terrific Trio has struck and another one bites the hive. Good to see buddy Ralph where he belongs, Charlie did wonderful and you with a fat lip but well documented and paid for. Thankk You JESES and have a wonderful Jesus weekend and BLESSINGS all around!
What a way to wake up! THREe AMiGOS!!! Welcome back Ralph. Nice work guys.
Wouldn't it be better to somehow melt the top edge of the comb you removed, since it is nice and flat. and attach it to the top bar of the frame ? That way the bees could continue drawing the comb down like they would naturally. Once the wax cools and with the help of bands, I think it would stay in place when you turn the frame right side up.
Our rubber band method works VERY well and it is a common practice with most bee wranglers. Thanks for watching.God's peace Gary.
Mr. Ed
Still use the bands also.
@@JeffHorchoff
Awww World Famous Mike Barry was just showing you how he did it :) Y’all are a great bunch having a great time ! Good to see Ralph back too. Thanks for sharing and letting me tag along :)
Have you ever noticed how calm your bees get after treating your bees for varroa mites ? I had some real. Mean bees treated them and now I have a happy bees yard
As I do not treat our bees, I have not noticed. However, these bees calmed down right after we transferred them and started feeding them sugar water. God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
Nice job on the cutout!
Excellent video as always. Kudos I enjoy the content and have learned quite a few tips and tricks from you guys. Keep it up
Funny, I was just thinking if I held a flashlight in my mouth, through the mesh, I would get stung on the mouth (really mean bees where I live). How does Mr. Ed do it? Then Ralph said you were stung "through the suit"! How the mighty have fallen!😀
Trust me, it happens almost every adventure. God's peace Darrell.
Mr. Ed
I remember the feeling you get with your first bees. Not sure if you want to run or dive in. I also know that cut outs aren't as easy as you and rooster make it look.
I always just dive right in. Nothing like the feeling of doing a removal of a large hive.
Doing my first removal tomorrow :)
I hope it goes well for you and the bees. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
@@JeffHorchoff FILLED THREE BOXES MR. ED!!!!!! posting the video now!
Hello Mr Ed and thank you for all the wisdom and positivity you convey.
Part of my small beekeeping business here in the mountains of Virginia includes removals. I find I have good success keeping the bees in the bee vacuum alive and healthy when the colony is relatively new to the location. But when they have been there all season or worse, for multiple seasons, the volume of honey and nectar that spills as I vacuum bees and remove comb inevitably makes for a very sticky mess inside my hose, and all over the outside of the bees that end up in the vac.
In some cases, bees begin to clog up inside the hose, which I can usually resolve, but the bees in the vacuum get stressed it seems by the light coating of honey and nectar all over them. In those situations I get a heartbreakingly high percentage of die off before I get back to my apiary to house them.
What insight can you offer to help me combat the situation I describe when the job is big and goes on for many hours? In what way do you approach big old colonies differently than young small ones?
I work by myself, so things drag on longer than if I had a helper or two. But I’m not in the position to hire anybody .
Thanks for your input.
Randy
The solution is very simple, avoid vacuuming bees on honey. I generally do this by removing the honey comb first thus pushing bees onto the brood comb and not allowing them to contact dripping honey. The bees that are on honey I leave them alone until they have cleaned the honey up, than they are vacuumed. I realize this may not be the exact answer you where hoping for, but with experience, your methods will improve. Best wishes for all your successes. God's peace Randall.
Mr. Ed
You were stung on the lip?! That would have killed me. I am so allergic to bee venom. You seem not to be even in pain. That is a blessing for a bee wrangler. God bless you and Ralph and Charlie. Thank God for the queen of the hive. Say Hello to your Mrs.
Great friends great times great memories nothing like it
Big hive and lots of nice comb. Filled the 8 frame up nice. Thanks for the video. God bless.
Hotter than normal! Would be a little cautious and if possible jar a few to get tested for Africanized genes.
The bees calmed down almost immediately after the transfer and we started feeding them sugar water. And, I'm happy to say, they continue to do so. Thanks for watching. God's peace Raymond.
Mr. Ed
Fantastic! Great to see my main man Ralph back too.
and... super editing 😉
You guys make me laugh and produce great video content. Also great to see Ralph back with the crew, he adds his special touch to the whole gig. From Adelaide Australia, Regards Rod Long......Keep up the great work fellas.......
Hello Mr Ed, muito boa tarde, por aqui no Brasil semana chuvosa,que captura formidável essa em, vocês fazem um formidável trabalho e dessa vez o senhor foi premiado com um beijo na boca em. 🐝🐝🐝🐝Parabéns que DEUS abençoe a todos. 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝
BRILLIANT AS ALWAYS
Great job. Nice looking bees!
🤝🏾🇺🇸💪🏾🙏🏾👍🏾
I love you and Charlie so much and look for videos of you two constantly.
May God bless you and keep you always , your friend Matt from Battletown ky
I really enjoy ur Videos!! Makes me smile !! God Bless yall
Why not use a bee cage that the bees can chew through over time and release the queen themselves a a couple days?
I prefer using a cage that is easy to put her into and easy to release her from. I guess it's just a personal preference at to the type of cage for a queen.Thanks for watching, and I hope you will check out more of my bee wrangling/ bee rescues adventures and let me know what you think of them. By the way, I post a new video every Friday morning, and I look forward to hearing from you again soon. God's peace Roger.
Mr. Ed
You all are a riot to watch.🖖🐝👍
About that strapping system, sometimes the obvious is too simple to see huh?
I bought 2 nucs this spring but they are too hot for me to deal with. Because I'm in a wheelchair I can't get away from them and no amount of smoke has helped. Hopefully they make it thru winter and I can get someone to requeen them. If not I will definitely go to someone else to get a nuc or 2. Won't get more of the sister queens of mine now. Grrrr. I get stung in the evenings just sitting on my porch. Nope. Can't have that
I don't like hot hives either, but requeening them will help. God's peace Renee.
Mr. Ed
The Three Amigos are going to have to back off of Mike Barry and get back on the Rooster! It’s just not the same like this….
I've been beating up on the Rooster a bit much lately, so I gave him a bit of a breather, but I'll bee starting up again real soon. God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
