Bee Man Vs Trash Pile Full Of Bees

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 24 พ.ค. 2020
  • Honey bees will often colonize the strangest of places but what we may consider an odd location for a bee colony to a bunch of bees is just another place to set up shop.
    It was definitely time to step in & give these gals a hand as the trash pile they called home for at least a year was rapidly deteriorating.
    This one was definitely all about how many licks does it take to get to the tootsie roll?
    It was a nitpicking endeavor, time consuming but the bees were gentle & in the end cooperated with my efforts to place them into a domestic set up.

    Been watching you for a while now. I used to be scared of bees- just hearing one nearby was enough to make me scoot for cover.
    After watching you and Randy doing your thing, this year, I made a little lean-to, put it on an old metal stand next to one of the many flowering bushes in my back yard, set a small dish of sugar water and some smelly honey in it, and have spent nearly a week being up close with the local bumblebees, getting photos and videos from inches away. No local honeybee colonies that feed on our property, but it's still awesome to get some time with the bumblebees.
    I would never have dreamed of doing this without you folks, and all the education I've gotten from you that's helped me overcome my fears.
    Thanks again, and keep on doing the good work for the gals!

      Indeed the best way to stop being scared of bees is to see someone who is not scared. I had this experience just last weekend: the tenant of a house I own in the countryside had no experience with bees, and their presence in a tree that bloomed in the garden terrified her. I went there, stood under the tree just inches from the bees, stretched my hand towards them, and expressed how lucky she was to have the bees working around and enjoy the lovely sound of them. Fear went away (for good, I hope)!

      Fun Fact. Bumblebees have "degenerated" stings. Essentially almost all bumblebees can't sting through a human skin anymore. So there is nothing to be afraid of with the little bumbles.

I'm not sure if he got unlucky or if he would have had it worse if their stingers were different, but I'd like a source either way please.

    Ok, so it's NOT just me! I've been swearing up and down my entire life some bee stings hurt way worse than others. Some just burn and burn. Others I feel a quick stick and it's over. Other people have told me that's not possible. I've been stung enough times, I truly believe some hurt far worse than others and it's not just based on where they sting me.

    Hey JP thank you for the wealth of information you share. My wife is a hobbiest beekeeper and I’m a city boy. We recently got 2 boxes of bees and we will compete for honey.
    We got a call from a woman with bees colonized in her home for approximately 3 years. I watched your shed video and figured we’d be in for something like that.
    We cut out 1 ft deep of roofing above a bay window and found thousands of bees and approximately 60lbs capped and uncapped honey.
    I put an 8 frame box up on the house next to their entrance. We couldn’t find the queen so we scooped as many bees as we could into the box with a local company’s version of Swarm Commander. It didnt work
    I put some lemongrass oil on a cotton ball and left the box overnight.
    We checked on the box the next day, no bees inside the box and 98% of the bees left.
    Soooo. We are going back monday to cleanup and double check all bees are gone so replacement windows can go in. We also had a huge wasp come in attack a bee and fly off with it. We saw the wasp again my wife had her phone she got a 6 second clip ending with the wasp flying at her. She almost fell off the ladder
    We used a bucket of water just like you
    Thanks so much

    I've been watching several bee keeping videos. I really like your's about retrieving hives from places they aren't wanted. I have never heard any bee keeper mention the use of Baking Soda for bee stings. Just put a quarter size bunch of Baking Soda in your palm and add just enough water to make a loose paste and apply it to the sting. Try not to move the area to much for a few minutes because as the paste starts to dry it will fall off. This paste also works on wasp stings. I have used this on kids and grandkids for almost 50 years. If they get stung they come running to get the pace put on. Thanks for your videos.

    JP great videos. Do you ever get stung by the way ? It's hard to tell if you do.

    Do you send bees to Idaho and if you do how much for a batch and shipping, I have never had bees but we bought a place and it had some old bees boxes and i would like to get some bees to go in them, but i don't know what I'm doing, i watch you, rooster, and gabby, I do watch others but you 3 are my favorites

      Hippy, you should probably get some from your local area. I don't think that those down south bees from MS or LA will overwinter to well in Idaho.

    Where I live, we have ground bees 🐝. I accidentally stepped on one of them barefoot as it was hiding among the purple flowers that had fallen out the tree. My neuropathy prevented me from really feeling it though.

    JP, did we ever figure out what happened with the dead queens? Very good video as always. Thank you.

    Do you do your own bee keeping at your home? My daughter and I have a great interest in this and are wanting to learn. Do you have any suggestions how a newbie can learn? Thank you, you have an awesome channel!

      @@JPthebeeman That's so interesting. Bees are pretty neat and really very beautiful on your up close shots. I like to hear their buzz. What is the sound you look to hear? You called it pipping or something. What does that sound like? The more I watch you the more I like them. 👍

      This is an older video of mine of virgin queens “piping” in an attic space. Turn your volume up though, it was filmed with a smartphone. th-cam.com/video/nKBI1q_RbvI/w-d-xo.html

    Perhaps the first queen to hatch killed the ones that were

      The mystery was more the dried up royal jelly in every queen cell I opened, which was several.

      @@JPthebeeman How long takes that jelly do dry up? Maybe there was an earlier colony that died out due to an infection or moved away, and they left the dead queen cells and combs there, and later a new bee colony reclaimed the place.

    Theory on the dead queens in cells: Might they have been the ones killed by the first queen to hatch and you happened to get to them before the workers had emptied out the cells?
