Top Five Most Massive Bee Hives
Вставка
- Опубліковано 10 лют 2025
- These are five of the largest bee hives I have removed & relocated.
A large colony of honey bees can contain anywhere from 30,000-50,000 bees.
They sometimes can get upwards of 100,000 individuals!
All of these colonies you see in this video were located in New Orleans, Louisiana with the exception of the first one which was located near Port Sulphur, Louisiana.
JP the bee man is a live honey bee removal specialist who will go just about anywhere for bee work but resides in Metairie, Louisiana.
JP is on facebook, instagram & twitter as JPthebeeman.

Dudes got balls. I'd be wearing a bee suit under my other bee suit.
the dumbass isnt even wearing a bee suit and killer bees are common
I as well !
Bee suit is for bees not humans. Beekeeper do not want them to be killed by accident.
Xarai They are calm honey bees, vital for pollination of crops qnd flowers. Do you think they would chose to die when he treats them with respect, stupid flapping around like a crazy thing cos they might be horrific 'killer bees' is what makes even the most docile bee unhappy and liable to sting.
@@Xarai they're only in southern part of america,close to mexico,but their honey is so damm sweet
i just realized i've been watching jp remove bee hives for 4 hours
Bee marathon, I owe you a jar of bee vitamins, no doubt! 👍🐝
Woo pig sooie
They need to make bee keeping suits that look like Winnie the pooh
I need a suit just to watch him
Cute
That sings "I'm just a little black rain cloud"
That's a brilliant idea! You could make a million bucks with it!
lol
JP, Good evening. My name is Clodoaldo, I'm a beekeeper here in Brazil, I have few hives yet, around 80 hives, I also love ad bees, in the end I only know who works with them. I want to congratulate you on your work, I always follow UA-cam. I am impressed by the size of the swarms there in the USA. Here in Brazil our swarms do not reach this proportion, and are very defensive. Congratulations and a big hug.
Clodoaldo Maina the domesticated bees have been selectively bred for less fighting, more work. If you can introduce some good gentle queens - making sure they're not introducing any parasites or diseases! - you'll be able to have gentle, hardworking bees too.
They still fight enough to protect themselves from predators. They're just not crazy aggressive any more.
I been on a bee kick lately.. getting tons of recommended videos for it. From all that I've seen this guy is a true bee whisperer lol
Hands down you are the absolute best UA-cam channel please keep doing what your doing GOD bless you

What a GREAT title, I love it JP. Way to show those folks that stole your material. I hope it goes viral. God's peace brother.
Jeff Horchoff Bees wasn’t really about getting back at anyone really Jeff but I know you know that.
They likely made at least five grand or more off that video where you & I saw no mention at all after they infringed on our material.
What’s right is right, that’s all. I wish no person ever any evil, that only breeds negativity & life’s way too short not to dwell on the positives.
Peace brother.
👍🐝🐝🐝
@@JPthebeeman Well said brother, my sentiments exactly. By the way, it really is a great video. God's peace.
Thanks Jeff. We will have to do one sometime. 👍🐝
@@JPthebeeman This year JP. Looks like this one is taking off. God's peace.
Jeff Horchoff Bees sounds like a plan Jeff. 👍🐝
7:35 Someone calls him.
Him: Can’t talk bye.
😂
I also like his ringing tone.😁
It was YAPPY
This is the correct and only guy you want to call for something like this
F me then, I live in germany.
Hey JP....I was flipping through UA-cam and saw one of your videos and noticed your truck. I actually live a few blocks away from you. I think it is awesome what you are doing for these magnificent creatures. Keep up the great work bud.
@@shvaix2415
They can't stay where they are, so they have to go, one way or another. Either JP comes along, removes them humanely and gives them a new, safe home, or an exterminator comes along and kills them all. I think this is the better way to go.
@@shvaix2415 Well, it’s either JP comes and gives them a new home (they pay rent via their honey) or an exterminator comes and kills them all.
Everyone looks into the face of danger: “screams”
Jp looks into the face of danger:
“Hehe”
I fell timber for a living, and I came across many wild hives,I removed them and raised them myself and gave away many hives to friends .
JP, you are a man of many talents. You are a cutout king and a great producer of instructive videos.
“Honey there, there, there, and two bags down there.”
Winnie the poh: allow me to introduce myself
Nobody respects bees like you do. Thank You so much for what you do!
I just resonantly found your channel and I think it’s great. I have a fear of Bees but you show how peaceful and cooperative they can be as long as you know what your doing and respect them!! Keep up the good work!!
You deserve so many more subscribers. Great content and a humble down to earth youtuber. Keep the videos coming! Love seeing this stuff. It is kinda relaxing.
I can’t wait to own my own house someday so I can own my own bee hives. Bees are not only the most incredible insects on this planet, but the honey is just so good!
Fascinating, my Grandfather use to keep bees in the windbreak on our farm in the 50’s and 60’s.
He worn a beekeeper hat with the netting and used a smoker. Would never go watch as I thought I
might get stung. He would always share the honey in the wax comb wit us and the family. Wonderful memory!
This is the first and only comment I have or will make on UA-cam. You are an amazing person. I have loved your videos. I truly cannot overstate how much I admire what you do and how cool I think you are. Please keep loving your best life. You are an inspiration:
I really appreciate that, hope you’re having a great day. 👍🐝
@@JPthebeeman Yes indeed! I wanted to tell you the same thing as James, and by the way after reading the comments I'm happy so many people feel the same -- the way you take care of the bees with such respect is heartwarming. I really hope people are going to change and start respecting and loving mother nature a lot more. Cheers from Europe.
iHave NoName 👍🐝
Europeans: metric system
Americans: its the size of 5 basketballs 🏀
This man is incredible he just gets it humble and helps the planet big time love this channel
I remember every one of these. Loved every moment of it. Maybe do your top five Bee Marches! I do love seeing them do that, cute little things.
My grandfather kept bees and he would talk about removing hives. I was amazed how brave he was. He laughed and showed me his gear that kept him safe. I never knew this is what he would do.
JP Bless you for saving all the bees. We need them and they are disappearing. What you do is very important so I thank you very much.
Also I'm from New Orleans. Thanks for representing!
Jokes on you he’s hoarding the bees for his own bee army
@@nell711 as long as they’re alive and well 💛🖤🐝
I love love love your videos they are so wholesome , you seem like a great man and overall your videos boost my mood 👏🏼👏🏼
Kendall T 😘🤘👍🐝
WOW!! I love it!! Even though I'm allergic to bee stings I love these videos and am rooting for the bees. Weird right? I'm so glad that you do what you do. You must be a bee whisper. The way you hold them in your hand and everything?? I could never do that. Well if I ever have any honey bees to remove I will call you. Thank you for sharing. 😊🇺🇸🌴 FLORIDA.
"I love me some swamp honey"
WOW! Those were some gigantic hives!
I had a swarm at my apartment once on the back patio. They made their hive between two bushes. They formed what looked like 2 footballs.
The bee guy came out and removed them. He said a new queen bee was born and she had to leave her hive and start a new one.
I was able to watch the process from the safety of my bedroom. He removed them just like you did. Couldn't understand him not wearing the full on safety suit, just like you.
He did get stung once or twice, didn't even flinch!
I'm allergic to insect bites so I was freaking out.
The bee guy said he was going to take them out in the country where it was safe.
You are simply amazing, don’t think you’re not making a positive impact on the world, truly inspiring 🐝
goodness! those bee removal guys are heroes, saving those creatures & giving them a new home, while always being exposed to their still go too...RESPECT!!!
The 16 people who disliked this video were simply AWE-SMACKED by how cool you are dude!
Ive NEVER seen a bee guy WITHOUT a beard! Id be so scared that the bees would get in it!!! Brave soul!
I am so overwhelmed by the beauty of all of this. Thank you so much Bee Man!
Thanks for the early birthday gift. What a great way to celebrate. Snowing right now in Southern Illinois, so had to get my bee fix here.
Love your videos. Number 5 on that list was the first one I ever watched, it was also the one that made me subscribe to your channel and start binge watching. Very impressive work you do.
Glad to have you as a subscriber, thank you so much!
6:13 Why does her saying she loves her some swamp honey make me think about swamp Nooky?? Lol
I just found your channel watching a Facebook video.
This is so interesting! After not liking bees, I’m starting to learn from just watching your videos! Keep up uploading and maybe go around other places to help bees all over the country!
No bee suit? Wow......impressive to say the least. And btw, thanks for saving and relocating the bees. Saving the world one comb at a time.
You are the man hands down. Alot of ppl dont know this but we need these bees, and your the best to save them
Wow those were some monsters. It’s funny how many more giants you get than we do over here even though we’re so close.
628DirtRooster Bees I suppose we just have more people who wait longer to call a bee man. 😄
Wish I had a dollar for every time I told the homeowner “now call me sooner next time, okay?” 😄
I feel jealous, here in the western suburbs of Melbourne, I have only seen a swarm once and even though we get bees coming to visit every warm day, we don’t see hives at all.
Thanks to shoes like yours I was brave enough to walk within 2m of the bee swarm and once I determined that they were chill with me there, I brought my son over to see them, which he loved. We didn’t get any closer as I didn’t want to accidentally step on them as with the vegetation, it was harder to see where they fell. Lol they were a bit clumsy
Evelyn Rojas 👍🐝🐝🐝
Evelyn Rojas if you're in the suburbs and have a back yard, can you keep a couple of hives there? I'm in rural Victoria, and my bees are flourishing this year!
And yes, a new swarm is very placid, and if you can get them into a hive box while they're still carrying plenty of stores, they will get right on with being happy bees. They're lovely!
I just wanna say thankyou for what you do. I personally have always been afraid of bees despite knowing they're quite docile creatures. Its the wasps i have to worry about haha but the importance of the honey bee really makes me appreciate them and care about them. So thankyou for safely extracting them and getting them a new safer home so they can farm :)
JP great video; you truly are an artist; I remember a few of these videos; I think half the fun is the people you guys meet in your endeavors ; thanks for entertaining me
Kevim C totally agree with you! We do run into some characters here no doubt!
THE VACUM PROBABLY HAS A BEE HIVE LOL😂😂😂😂
I actually had a queen bee move into a different bee vac I used to use years ago. I was removing bees from a playhouse floor & had already caught eight queens.
Once I noticed what was going on I opened up the bee vac & there she was with a bunch of bees.
Will never forget that, was the first time I actually had bees move into the bee vac with a queen nonetheless.
I’ve had them land on the bee vac & the vac catch boxes many, many times but that was the one time bees along with a queen moved into the set up all on their own, was really cool & unique!
Your channel and your content is amazing! Keep up the great work :)
Love it, love it, love it... Nice work as usual my friend... The editing/music was spot on! Great work brother!! 🐝🐝🐝☮️☯️
Tim Huffman thanks Tim! 👍🐝
Great look back. I’m looking forward to growing my bee farm this year. Already have 2 hives from last year. Both did great over the winter. Should have a great harvest this year. I’m also going to make a huge observation hive for my house. I’ll send you pics when it’s done.
Would love to see that! Best of luck with your beekeeping endeavors. 👍🐝
Largest bee hive I ever seen and removed was at Ngcobo Baptist Church, the hive was was under their backroom floor.. the largest center comb was about 1 meter wide and hanged about 900mm down.. I had to cut that comb 3 times.. the total honey Combs we took out there was 2 large washing basins full. I would guess around 70kg.. I should have documented that hive.. but you know how it goes... 😀
I do indeed! I’ve done other ones much larger than what’s in the video (before I started videoing any of my work) but these aren’t slouches by any means.
You are a wonderful! Thank you for showing how docile and relaxed the bees can be. Love the work you’re doing. Without the bees there’s no you or me!!
You and the Hornet king are the two best channels at what you guys do. Keep up the hard work bub 👍
We did same thing, bee keeper came moved from house to new location.
Another one, Wild bees made into old tree 🌲 cut tree & now I have 2 honey bees box for them.
I feed them their own honey comb each morning after I stole honey.
My part: No poop to clean, no water, no responsibility raise them. Love them. I get honey 🍯 for rewards.
Very nice video man. Your love of bees realy shows in how you handle them. Lots of respect for that!
i like how you and your mate stirred up yappy bee man
"I loves me some swamp honey! Good and smokey and sweet!" Just like her!! Great comment capture!
Jeff GreenEyesn she was definitely a trip & a lot of fun!
Fun to see these again. Also, subs are growing nicely. Happy for you JP.
Thank you my friend. ✌🏻🐝
Thanks J.P. . Always enjoyable to watch your videos. Ill bee waiting.
I wrote a skit about bees. I added a scene with a drone... take that more than one way. The Spy Drone tells the girls that Monsanto is no more. Yay!... Nope! It's called Bayer now. They grab signs and go protest... Outlaw Round-Up - Ban ALL Pesticides - Save the Bees - Down with Bayer. I keep watching your vids. I love you, dude. Keep on keeping on... watcha got in that smoker that mellow those gals out so much? hmmm?
Best of
The best you have a natural talent with bees and you give out a very relaxing vibe thank you man
Med YK I try my very best to put out good vibes. Always dwell on the positives in a world with many negatives. 🤘🐝
@@JPthebeeman amen ❤
Unfortunately I uyuûyy
He really took a picture next to it🤙🏻what a savage 😂
Its so satisfying that you can eat all that honey , its like overgrown garden with tons of goodies
Thank you for the work you do!!!! Your doing something so important for the planet !!!!! We need more people like you !!!!! You aren’t doing this for the money you actually care about the bees and I think they know that and that’s why they don’t sting the hell out of you ;)
Those were definitely some dillies. Lots and LOTS of bees. Love IT
It’s so cool how barely any bees are actually trying to sting you. Bees are cool
Hi, dude! What a huge beehive! Nice to see your handcraft bee work. Congratulations!
He just goes IN in with no gloves in sight. Beast. Much respect ✊🏽
JP, your best video yet. Now I have to go back and see if I can find a few of those individual videos to check out in more detail. Guy

Hope you’re doing well Guy 👍🐝🐝
Great job fella, I'm a 🐝 lover myself. I've always wanted to be a bee keeper.
I've always wanted to keep bees. I really enjoy watching your videos
0:55 WHY DOES THAT HIVE CREEP ME OUT SO MUCH?!?!??!!??! (I think it's BC it's like...compacted in there like that) WTF 😂😂😂
That's a great way to start a new season of watching bee programs. Also, good luck in the new program with Reed.
zalmaflash Reed?
@@JPthebeeman The Killer bee guy in Arizona. He mentioned that there was a "series" in the future with you and him [and others] on some channel (forgot the name of it).
zalmaflash I may know what you’re talking about if it’s what I think it is.
I had to tell him I couldn’t do it, still under contract with a television production company until April.
@@JPthebeeman Maybe after your contract expires it will happen. Here is where I got that info. ua-cam.com/video/lUZilmXA4eA/v-deo.html and it starts about 7:25 into it.
You da man.
Great video. That vacuum seems to work really well. I feel like I need to go put my swarm traps around boarded up buildings after watching this!
Clueless Homesteaders yep & apartment complexes!
WOOW! JP using veil! and yes, those hives were huge! 🤩
I think it's bees that have their legs loaded up with pollen are just adorable.
Can’t talk, bye.....lol😄, love your videos. Those were some monster hives. You should do some Pink Floyd music to some of these ...keep them coming.
bluzervic would love to but can’t for copyright reasons. Just a lost soul swimming in a fishbowl year after year. 🤘😉🐝
Lol. And I was thinking ...comfortably numb...after those stings of coarse 😆
“I luz me some swamp honey.” Ha!
JP is the bee whisperer! Feel the love!
Those bees trusted this man like it’s their queen. Bees are better than wasps
I do bee removal (extract and relocate) and I have not once come across docile bees like in your videos. Good job man.
Love ur attitude bro 👌🏽deserves millions more views
It’s lovely to see someone else that loves the fuzzy butt snipers.
Man I love watching so much different stuff my taste in entertainment is super diverse
First of your videos I've watched: Interesting, with really Cool music! Thanks!
Good to see you again JP. Hope everything is good with you.
✌️👍🐝
Great video. I have seen at least 4 of the hives from last year that you have done, I enjoyed the video very much . it was made very well. thanks.
Rusty Nail thanks, good to see you, hope you are doing well. 👍🐝
@@JPthebeeman IAM doing better thank you for asking. take care of your self.
Imagine if that one window wasnt boarded up on the inside. One day you come home from work and walk into your storage room and see this.
I can tell you love what you do and you care for your coworkers (the bee's)
Awesome work JP 👍
You’re awesome JP 🐝🐝🐝🐝 We are all blessed with your knowledge. Thanks Great video.
John dirtbag 👍🐝🐝🐝
Another informative video by JP the bee man thank you JP
Someone: * trypophia kicks in*
Trypophia: YuH gET It tO IT
Awesome job!!! Love your vids.😘 boy howdy...watching your vids makes me grave a chunk of that honey comb dripping with that golden goodness.
Loved the "Can't talk BYE!!!!"
The Great Outdoors with John Candy and Dan Ackroyd. Even though it wasn't really shot in Wisconsin it's nice 2 see Wisconsin depicted nicely in movies being a Wisconsinite. Ringtone reminded me of that movie cuz the song was just recently released and gaining popularity and they allowed it for the beginning of the movie which helped set a good mood for the rest of the movie.
you just got yourself a new subscriber.im still afraid of wasp.
,bees and all from their race but wow you do a great job for saving them .thumbs up for you
My favorite part of every video is the “Bee March”!
This comb looks light clean and smooth i can watch it without end
We used to keep bees, me being the son I personally did not help out with them because they were my parents. But hopefully one day I can get a hive or 2. It is really cool what these creatures can do. No reason to be scared of a bee anyway they may sting somewhat. Once you get stung enough you get used to it. Awesome hive catches!
Wow! I love this! I love bees! I once pet one! I love this channel! Keep doing what you’re doing!
HoW diD yOu PeT oNe?
Very careful and softly.
THEY ARE SO FUZZY!
I am amazed at what bees can do, I am afraid of bees, but wow those hives are huge and it all started because of the 1 queen. Goodness, nature is something else.
I love how you save the little guys -great work!
