    Bees are so cool. but you don't know how cool until you've kept bees.
    I really enjoy your channel.

    I grew up on a farm in the Midwest and now I'm a math teacher in Hawaii. While at school, I saw the custodians trying to deal with a swarm using water hoses and wasp spray. I intervened, asking them to wait. Instead, I used my Leatherman to carefully cut the branch the swarm was on and transported it to the nearby woods. Miraculously, I didn't get stung once.

    It's been noticed for a long time that year after year, different swarms will often go to the same tree, sometimes the exact same branch. It's a thought to put swarm traps anywhere you've ever collected a swarm. Faster and easier to untie a bucket trap than collect a naked swarm, and you don't have to depend on someone else just happening to see a swarm in a tree and call you right when you have time to get them.....

    Beautiful! I’m so amazed by your skills with the girls! Thank you for taking us along! I’ve always been terrified of any type of bee until I started watching your videos. Now when we’re changing the hummingbird feeders and there are bee’s around, it makes me happy and I don’t worry about them stinging me! If I was younger, I’d seriously think about becoming a beekeeper! It’s just so beautiful! ❤❤❤

  • @george9669r
    @george9669r หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    That’s cool that you use a frame to help get the bees off of the branch. I usually just shake the branch and drop them into the nuc box or scoop them up. Great way to get them in tight spots.

  • @Darren_Nicola
    @Darren_Nicola หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Well done amazing job , its probably only the scouts that get left behind as they venture out looking for the new home and then come back and the family swarm has disappeared so they pack the bags like stroppy teenagers and head home for tea 😀

  • @pauliebaker2534
    @pauliebaker2534 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Good job! I had a swarm around the same time but on the 14 th move into a double deep beside my equipment trailer. It's so exciting watching them move into a hive box. . Good luck this year and I'll be watching for more.

    i LOVE swarms, they are one of the best ways to get new comb drawn. i'll usually give my swarms 2 or 3 frames of drawn comb to start, and they'll usually fill out the other 17 frames in a month or so.

    Hi. I am UK beekeeper and enjoy your videos so thanks for taking the time to record them.
    I noticed the bag that you put the nuc into. I haven’t seen anything like that over here. Is it especially for that purpose or is it something you have adapted.
    Thanks

    @SageandStoneHomestead หลายเดือนก่อน

    Those bees that didn't make it into the colony will go back to the mother hive won't they? (You just said that in the video) I'm thinking that has to be true. Without a queen they'll go back.
