That gap above the trim is how picture molding is put up. A hook let pictures hang on plaster walls without nails that could crack the old lath & plaster walls. Nowadays it’s often just a style for looks.
I’m allergic to bees so I do my best to stay clear of them. My dad however has a hive in his backyard he keeps as his retirement hobby. He loves watching your channel, and surprisingly as do I. Thank you for providing the great content my father loves to watch Sir.
The bees are all over the Holly bush at my front door. I've been staring at that bush for hours over the last couple days. They're really relaxing, despite beeing so busy all the time. I appreciate the videos you've been putting out over the years. I wouldn't be anywhere near this comfortable around them before I found your content. Thank you!
Thank you for taking us with you DirtRooster. It was very interesting from start to finish. I'm sorry about the beekeepers' convention. You'll have a grand one next year. See you soon.
Speaking of allergies, my sister used to take tea with honey in it. One day she became anaphylactic and went into shock, she was in the bath. She is fine, scared but fine. I don't know if that means she is allergic to bees or just the honey...
That's a lot of bees Randy. Amazing how they keep building down off the frames in the box. Even building without a frame. Keeping everything straight too. Yes indeed they are marvelous creatures. Thanks for the tour and fun. Stay well and safe.
Randy, I just wanted to tell you how much I appreciate the time you spent making this video. I enjoyed reading the description, too. Excellent video! 👍😊
keep those vids coming everything closed, everyone quarantined, -10 this morning no beekeeping today maybe in a month, that Inn should have been sold years ago to an owner who would have looked after it, probably take a million to fix it back up, the hive you split my bees would have swarmed long ago, never seen a hive so packed, then again I would not let that happen but the rooster is a busy man, very entertaining, happy days
Guess it's time for a mite check for the Ole DirtRooster. What kind of frames? They are energizer frames, they keep going and going and going. Nice strategic placement with the headlights on the old tractor.
When you were walking around that dilapidated old inn, I kept worrying you were going to crash through something or the place was going to come down on top of you. That was a nasty old place. It look like it was probably only held together by cobwebs. The carpenter bees ate all the rest of it.
They are wasps that make their nests out of mud. They kill spiders and pull them into the nest, lay an egg or two on it and seal it up. When the eggs hatch they eat the spider.
THEY'RE CALLED *MUD (DIRT) DAUBER* WASPS, EMMA. THERE WAS AN ENGLISH ENTOMOLOGIST (CAN'T REMEMBER HIS NAME) THAT WROTE EXTENSIVELY ABOUT WASPS AND WAS ABSOLUTELY FASCINATING. NOT DRY, VERY INTERESTING. DAUBERS ARE VERY NON-AGGRESSIVE. I ACTUALLY PETTED ONE, ONE DAY, FOR APPROX., 4 MINUTES WHEN IT WAS BUSY ON IT'S NEST. IT WOULD TURN AROUND AND LOOK AT ME ONCE IN AWHILE BUT, OTHER THAN THAT, DIDN'T PAY ANY MORE ATTENTION TO ME THAN THE MAN IN THE MOON. GOOD LUCK.
Did you happen to ask the trim guy why he left that gap between the crown and the ceiling? The only thing I can come up with is that they have rope lighting in all of their crown in every room, but that's just crazy.
I had a double removal on a multi-million home in Houston. Bee went in some soffit lighting junctions on the 3rd story of a mahogany paneled library. The other hive found the only spot in the garage soffit with no insulation.
Hi I am from the UK and have been following you on you tube for a couple of months. I am so scared of anything that flies but watching you is helping me to cope. I cannot be the one running away and leaving my grandkids to cope (chicken) how do I get your merchandise to the UK, would love some for the grandkids if you do child sizes x
"Shadow trim" It was something requested by the property owner. The trim carpenter had never heard of it before either. Also all the light switches are at waist level to reduce shoulder joint wear.
Cant the conventions and classes convert to video? I used to teach a airsmith classes online to 50-100 people across the world. It wasnt perfect, some had to sign on at 2 am but everyone got the info and could ask questions as needed.
It maybe more work than what it's worth, but try using spacers between the cheap frames the bees love. I'm just a viewer, but I like to make things work better with what you got. Cut the spacers for comfortable bee space, and leave them in, or take them out if you like. Could be easier for frame extraction.

Ah, it's a pretty day. It just hurts my heart to see a lovely old place like that Lofty Oaks Inn left to rot. It would cost a LOT to turn it back into what it was, but oh, what a pleasure it would be!
I'm an amateur bee keeper i caught my first hive by mistake trying to pull old comb out of my hunting camp and left it in my ice chest well a swarm found its way in the drain plug and made itself at home and I managed to catch another to swarms off of that Hive that continued to live in the ice chest for about 4 years up until last fall somebody decided to spray my hives all of them with gasoline I live in Irvington Alabama not far from the Mississippi State Line and have been having trouble finding and catching swarms the past couple of years wasn't sure how to get in contact with you about buying some bees
I notice y'all like to place your hives on wagons...is that so you can move them around? And would you recommend migratory tops for someone who has mildish mountain winters (TN,KY,VA boarders). About an hour north of Knoxville TN.

Curious about how you have your business structured. Did you incorporate for liability protection? I've been doing bee removals as a hobby beekeeper and community service (pay what you think my efforts were worth) but know I'm wide open to liability if they perceive that I've done anything wrong. I feel I have a nitch skill that should not be hoarded but also know the liability risk I'm taking at the moment. May need to charge just to cover annual liability coverage. I'd value your input.
Randy, I have not been noticing Varroa here in North Mississippi. I noticed you had several Varroa in The “get together” video with the gang. Do you think Varroa are on the rise? Phillip Hall
You better stock up on the supplies you usually run to get from the hardware store... Those stores may be closed and this shut down mess is said to maybe last until late July or August.... Prepare.
Dirtrooster, do you have a good source for a queen this time of year? I have a hive that's been queenless for at least 3 weeks. I.e. no brood and capped queen cells. I'm desperate to get a queen as soon as possible.
Thank you. My Amish neighbor is a queen supplier but this is too early for him here in upstate New York. He was grinding corn for his pigs when I talked with him earlier this week. Should have seen all the bees covered in corn dust! He's going to supply me a frame of eggs when the weather warms up. We'll have to see if I can get a queen raised and mated to save my last colony.
You're amazing Dirt Rooster, how you work with bees with no fear and so gentle and caring. I really appreciate you
I appreciate that
The Lofty Oaks Inn is still on the market reduced to $200,000. Last guest hurican Katrina.
That gap above the trim is how picture molding is put up. A hook let pictures hang on plaster walls without nails that could crack the old lath & plaster walls. Nowadays it’s often just a style for looks.
Thank you! Just gave me some ideas... :)
BINGO! we've got a winner. I love that detail, plaster or not. Still possible to buy hook/hangers but I prefer to make my own.

No worries. Gives me a whole nother year to prepare.
It has great views, of the superhighway. It was probably a great place before the highway came through.

There were so many bees in that box they were just spilling out!
Bees: this guy again...?
Dirtrooster: you guys just do as i say and we wont have any problems
Bees:i think we are allergic to him...
Never checked myself for varroa but did have a first this spring where I had a hive beetle jump off me in Walmart.

Martin Gauffin - Sustained Hope is the track at the end if anyone was wondering
at 11:35; Would there not be a queen in there by the way they are acting? They seem to be fairly well behaved.
I'm from the UK and never heard of dirt diver nests. What are they? 🤔 I'm very intrigued by these blobs of what resemble mud.
They are wasps that make their nests out of mud. They kill spiders and pull them into the nest, lay an egg or two on it and seal it up. When the eggs hatch they eat the spider.

@@mikedufous9574 You left your caps lock on again. Should really keep an eye on that and your I.Q. might go up.
Are the scout bees 🐝 looking for a place to build???
Yep, looking for a home.
Great video. Enjoyed the exploration
Why do you start bees off in a smaller box, as opposed to a larger one?
They need a manageable amount of space.
Did you happen to ask the trim guy why he left that gap between the crown and the ceiling? The only thing I can come up with is that they have rope lighting in all of their crown in every room, but that's just crazy.
"Shadow trim" It's something the property owner came up with .
I live in Newton , Iowa, and as of tomorrow , schools will be closed until the 13th of April, or longer
They close Weds in central CA.
I have family in iowa as well they live up around Keokuk Iowa on the Missouri line
Bees have good taste
Thanks for the respite.
You bet
That varroa on your arm was wild! I've never seen or heard of one being on a human before! ~shudders~
Nice Video Randy. Sorry about the cancellations .
Yeah, I hate it for the people who went to all the trouble to put it together. Hope you're doing well buddy.
That pool house is bigger than my house house.
Their porch is bigger than my house.
I had a double removal on a multi-million home in Houston. Bee went in some soffit lighting junctions on the 3rd story of a mahogany paneled library. The other hive found the only spot in the garage soffit with no insulation.
Looking forward to seeing more of your bee removal videos. I always enjoy watching. I learn a lot from all the cut outs you guys do.

Whole lot of hit and miss in the past two weeks. Just got my shirt in. Thanks a bunch man. I'll be wearing it.
That pool house looks like 40's to 50's construction. Those interior doors..
So why WAS there a gap at the ceiling and trim?? You got me curious!
"Shadow trim" It was something requested by the property owner. The trim carpenter had never heard of it before either. Also all the light switches are at waist level to reduce shoulder joint wear.
@@628DirtRooster New one on me, too. Thanks! I like the idea of having the switches low and outlets high--sure minimizes bend and stretch.
Now that's a box of bees lol
Our line of work has to be a passion. It's like bass fishing. & deer huntin. Glad U got a day job 😀
Hi
Can you tell me what a dirt dobber is, I’ve never heard of them
Hi from Bunbury Western Australia 🇦🇺
It's a wasp that builds it's nest out of mud. They're pretty harmless other than clogging up stuff with dirt. Dirt Dauber or mud dauber
