@@YallBeeKindI was confused why you let the wasp sit on your hand because I was terrified. I was thinking is it going to sting her? And How did it feel to have a wasp on you hand like that?
@@ReneeShannon-yr3fj its a red paper wasp, from my knowledge they aren’t very aggressive towards people unless they’re provoked. Most wasp species aren’t it’s just the aggressive ones like bald face hornets, yellow jackets, and european hornets that kinda give wasps a bad reputation.
Idk. Wasps can be Ornery, but... I'm not allergic, if I get stung I grab a hand full of plantain and the stinging is gone in a couple minutes. Never been stung by yellow jackets. But Cow Killer and cicada killer HURT! It's all a necessary part of an ecosystem though. Wasks and yellow jackets eat other insects, yellow jackets make burrows, that can then be occupied by other wildlife when the colony eventualky dies or moves.... I don't worry about them, they rarely worry about me.
I don’t care for wasps (we have history🤬), but they eat aphids, which are bad for the plants, so I can put up with them. They just need to quit trying to build nests in my doorway! Leave me alone & I’ll leave you alone.
@@YallBeeKinddid you ever see the video about the bees who were producing coloured honey? It was striking green and blue and reds. After a bit of detective work it was discovered that the workers were feasting on discarded sweets which had intense colours. The honey was beautiful to look at, safe to eat. The factory where the bees were feasting removed the sweeties and the bees had to find another source of food. Personally I'd have loved to be eating blue or green honey. I love bees.
I remember when I was a kid I would always come back home from school or something and see this one single fat bee protecting the porch and it kept staring at me every time I tried going inside the house that one bumble bee had scared me every time I got home just seeing it waiting for me
I feed the bees w sugar water..they totally drain the feeders. I go in and replace the sugar water mid day. Swarms of these curious girls are all around me and I stay calm and fill the bottles. I've never been stung yet..love the Bzzzzzz.
I hope you only use cold water for that. If you use warm or hot water, the sugar will produce a second chemical which is harlmess for us but straight poison dor bees and wasps.
HMF in sucrose syrup is made by either high heat or extended time at temperature. Nobody makes 2:1 syrup with cold water, you'll be mixing all day to get it into solution. Warm or hot water to make syrup for bees is fine, just don't boil it or leave it on heat. Do consider when you feed though. If it is during a nectar flow when supers are on, you are probably diluting real flower honey with your sugar syrup, unbeknownst to the beekeeper.
as someone that works at a garden center outside among all the bugs all day, wasps are very chill unless you directly mess with their nest, and paper wasps (the kind we usually associate with wasps) tend to keep theirs in higher hard to reach easy to see places, building out of the spot they chosen with a visible paper nest the real problem child is the yellowjacket, because they are extremely defensive and built their nests internally, like under ground or inside dead logs. since the structure is internal and not easily visible, its easy to step on and unintentionally threaten yellowjackets. if you just see one little yellowjacket buzzing around you, either slowly walk away and let it lose interest, or if youre feeling brave, just let it land on you (if you arent deathly allergic or anything, just in case lol). its most likely following because something about you smells good, possibly your sweat, and should lose interest quickly. of course, just like people, some individual critters are just jerks and might get you for no reason that you can fathom 😂 but those individuals are pretty rare and imo, not worth killing the ones you see over. ive worked at this garden center for 2 years around tons of them (including a cool bald faced hornet once) and not been stung yet. and thats as someone that has to habitually stick my hands into the plants to prune and tidy them 😂
@@ashleyjohnson9651 and I grew up in an area with tons of wasps and I have been stung 4 to 5 times every summer my whole life while following every bit of advice. Don't call people a child it makes you sound like a dick
This stuff scares the crap outa me but I want my own bees one day so I watch these videos to help me remember, respect is respect no matter how tiny the beeing❤
VERY rarely do they sting without a known reason. When you get around then often enough you can hear their temper. I think if you care enough to learn and respect the little bees it will make you a great beekeeper one day! It will put you far ahead of so many people who jump in head first.
@@SarahM-ku4bu no i didn’t. i literally woke up with a bee on my leg and it stung me. this happened at my friends house and a few weeks later a bee stung her in her room while she was asleep. there was a bee hive in her attic that went to her room and they were aggressive
Wasps are actually very chill when they don't feel their hive is being threatened. Foraging wasps away from the hive like that one rarely sting, and even if you're close to the hive, food and fresh water offerings tend to cement you as non-threatening over time (wasps can remember faces!)
I think the most at one time feeding would be about 1.5 dozen. It was after days of gradually putting out supers for the girls to clean so everyone in the area got word and showed up after a few days haha!
I actually absolutely love bees. In middle school when we ate outside when it was nice there was a ton of bees. Most everyone ran from them but I'd just sit on the bench and share my cranberries with them. I loved watching the bees eat up close and stuff even though my classmates were freaked out by me letting the bees get so close
I’m so scared of bees, I was watering my grandmas garden and some water splashed onto my feet. I had 3 bees fly up to me and land on my toes for the water and I was petrified 😂 couldn’t do anything but wait for them to decide to fly off
Bees ate friends. They won't bother you even if you shake them off. If they are smaller and brown it's bees. If they are yellow it's whasps. Once you've seen both you can easily tell them apart
We live in south Mississippi and my mom throws out cans all the time, and the bees come in droves in the warmer months. My son was TERRIFIED of them till I showed him they were my friends and I had been taking care of them. Now he constantly warns us “don’t swat at the bees and they won’t bother you!!”
gorgeous girls! and wonderful wasp 🥰 wasps are some of my favourite native pollinators, thank you for being kind to them and giving them some honey, they love it!
yea the only reason stinging bees sting is because they feel threatened like if your waving your arms around while screaming then its not suprise they will take it as a threat and attack
You are one influencer that actually influences people. The other day a bee had ended up in our room but mom closed the window some time ago and I could see it was trying to get out. Any other day, I'd usually have trapped it between two window slidings because well.... What else could I've done? But this time, I put my hand near it inorder to open the window for it to escape and it stayed still, patiently waiting for me to do it. And flew away as soon as the window was open. I'm over my fear of bees now 🥺
As someone with a fear of wasps, I'd freak out and probably do something stupid that might make me accidentally get the bees killed. It's admirable how calm you are
I love wasps!! They get such a bad rep. We had one that would visit our porch when I put the sugar water out for the humming birds the first year. I was so sad that there were no birds, then I saw a little wasp drinking up. I kept telling my mom, “well, at least someone’s grateful for my hard work!” I didn’t see her this year, though 😭😭
They don't get a bad rep. They _earn_ a bad rep. My girls love insects and know all about how important pollinators are, but those assholes have stung them when they were just trying to get into the house. The stupid wasps didn't even have a nest in front of the house!
@blazeycakes93 the problem though is that people anthropomorphize them too much. Wasps don't hate you, they don't hate humans, they're not angry or seeking you out. They're not capable of higher thought or human-style emotions lol. They're animals that act on instinct against perceived threats, and some animals just inherently have a more aggressive temperament, it doesn't make them "mean".
They only sting and bite when in defense mode. I was impressed with the red wasp, though. Im allergic and would have panicked in my mind, which would make them attacked 😂
Bee Kepler videos like these are what make me so comfortable with picking up stray bees and putting them on a lil flower, while all my friends are screaming bloody murder for me 💀
On hot Chicago summer days right before school started, I would be standing near the large dumpsters were bees were just buzzing around getting whatever sweets were inside, meanwhile I would be having my hand out enough for them to notice the sucked on green jolly rancher, they loved it. Never got stung once but did get yelled at cause it was dangerous.
You’re 100% correct that swatting is worse than being still. I promise though that most of these critters are far more interested in the sweet snacks their hunting than being defensive, although I totally understand a healthy fear of them.
You and my friend are wild. He managed to save the same three bees from being trapped in his house and they only kept getting in cuz his ac unit wasn't properly mounted in the window and had gaps. Yes, the SAME bees kept breaking into his home just so they can get a sweet treat and crawl around on him as he brought them outside.
I wash my hands a dozen of times a day because sticky is so bad for me too actually. The unfortunate part is, so is dry hands so I constantly wash and moisturize.
I love wasp! They are such sweet babies when they know they are in a safe environment. My baby wafer loved her honey, she was a wasp I rescued, unfortunately she had passed last year and I truly miss her, she had torn wings so she couldn't fly, so I took care of her intill her last breath she would stick with me on my walks and nuzzle into my hoodie pockets when it was cold, loved her so much
Thats a northern paper wasp youve got there ^^ shes such a cutie! Videos like this make me love wasps even more, shes so gentle with how she licks the honey up! So sweet ❤ To people leaving mean comments about this beautiful wasps, just know that theyre important pollinators who deserve as much love as bees (sometimes more, the species in this video is native to the americas while the honeybee isnt) Dont let being stung by one lead you to hating them. You can be afraid and respectful ❤
What about multiple times? I got stung out of nowhere and didn't even see the wasps, both times I was sitting still. I'm so terrified of them and reading how cruel they can be just makes me hate them. I don't want to be scared to the point I start crying despite being a grown adult or hate them, but they terrify and have hurt me a lot
They would attack the intruder bee from the foreign colony. In this case though it’s just a stack of honey frames and not an active colony where they are feeding.
Once bees (and wasps!) get into a robbing frenzy they will attack any weaker hives within their range. I've lost starter colonies due to this. Another reason it's a bad idea is it's a great way for bee parasites and pathogens to spread.
We’ve been letting the bees clean out frames before putting them up for winter for several years and most beekeepers do the same as far as I’m aware. Do you leave your supers wet when stored or an alternative to keep them protected for wax moth or beetles? They are far enough away that we don’t see issues with robbing and we do monitor what’s going on at the bee yard through the day/days we do this
I have not done cut comb but plan to give it a try this next year. I'll do a couple of frames (I only have two hives; planning to split in the spring) and see how it goes. 😅
As a man with SEVERE apiphobia yet knows they aren't little murder hobo's...this is both beautiful and HORRIFYING to me, I would literally faint if this many bees were on me T_T
Wasps remember when people are kind to them. I have a wasp hive that is no trouble to anyone. 🐝 They are so used to me helping them,I tried to shoo them from going under the front porch but ultimately they won 😅 they are the most docile group of bees I've ever dealt with. The carpenter bees cause issues but we try to shoo them away with only one permanent tenant, Tom. The yellow jackets are sketchy folks. They don't bite me, but I get worried and don't let them nest in the yard. Children come first.
The sounds, the giant wasp, the sheer amount of bees in your hand...this is literally everything I have nightmares about. This is why I struggle to be outside in the summer. What kind of witchcraft...
Haha I promise unless you have honey on your hands they will not do this. Be careful of drinking sweet drinks though if you leave them out! I have gotten stung in my mouth that way
Fun fact, bees actually understand the symbiotic relationship between themselves and humans and will make extra honey on purpose when they know that humans are regularly harvesting! They choose to stay in man-made hives because they’re safe and clean, and they give us honey in return ❤
Amazing!! Can see the effect of us taking their food supply from them for ourselves.. thinking all is smooth.. they dont miss it when extracting.. when this is reality.. we just starving them while they do all the work... By far your the most generous bee keeper I've seen yet by sharing it back 🙏🙌🙌🙌🙌💓💞🎉

You should NEVER do this! It can trigger a mass robbing raid from all the other hives in the district and you are likely to lose this hive.

This is not an active hive box, as she said in the video, these are frames that had just been extracted and were left out for the bees to clean up.
@mykellhale you're right I didn't pay close enough attention at first
Once bees (and wasps!) get into a robbing frenzy they will attack any weaker hives within their range. I've lost starter colonies due to this. Another reason it's a bad idea is it's a great way for bee parasites and pathogens to spread.
We’ve been letting the bees clean out frames before putting them up for winter for several years and most beekeepers do the same as far as I’m aware. Do you leave your supers wet when stored or an alternative to keep them protected for wax moth or beetles? They are far enough away that we don’t see issues with robbing and we do monitor what’s going on at the bee yard through the day/days we do this
Brother bee keeper is always the most interesting monk at the monastery.
Most insects don't try to attack unless they feel provoked. If you're feeding them they will be nice as long as you're being nice.
Hi Rachel, love your videos! Do you use wax foundation or starter strips or something else?
This frame is a full thin wax foundation meant for cut comb. We use a wedge top and grooved bottom bar. Do you do cut comb as well?
I have not done cut comb but plan to give it a try this next year. I'll do a couple of frames (I only have two hives; planning to split in the spring) and see how it goes. 😅
I'm the total opposite of this video
You get used to it after spending so nuc by one with them 😊
As a man with SEVERE apiphobia yet knows they aren't little murder hobo's...this is both beautiful and HORRIFYING to me, I would literally faint if this many bees were on me T_T
this lady has made me appreciate bees so much more
If there was a dark red paper wasp on my hand I'd be freaking out
The bee's invited an enemy to share their food 😭
That’s the most chill wasp I’ve ever seen
Wasps remember when people are kind to them. I have a wasp hive that is no trouble to anyone. 🐝 They are so used to me helping them,I tried to shoo them from going under the front porch but ultimately they won 😅 they are the most docile group of bees I've ever dealt with.
The carpenter bees cause issues but we try to shoo them away with only one permanent tenant, Tom.
The yellow jackets are sketchy folks. They don't bite me, but I get worried and don't let them nest in the yard. Children come first.
The sounds, the giant wasp, the sheer amount of bees in your hand...this is literally everything I have nightmares about. This is why I struggle to be outside in the summer. What kind of witchcraft...
Haha I promise unless you have honey on your hands they will not do this. Be careful of drinking sweet drinks though if you leave them out! I have gotten stung in my mouth that way
As someone who's greatest fear on the planet is wasps/hornets 100%, i would have been shitting my pants
That wasp sends chills down my spine
Not me being highly allergic to wasp and bees😂
I am amazed how they all love you. You have certainly found your CALLING!
Love your videis in which you cut honeycombs in cute squares and put them nicely.
My instinct was, “oh no don’t pour honey outside…it will attract bees!” 🤣
Thank you for taking such good care of all bees!
The bees wondering where tf their food storage went:
Fun fact, bees actually understand the symbiotic relationship between themselves and humans and will make extra honey on purpose when they know that humans are regularly harvesting! They choose to stay in man-made hives because they’re safe and clean, and they give us honey in return ❤
Those type of wasp are pretty chill from all the times one landed on my leg
Bro the wasp just casually enjoying a free meal with bees
This is so cute! I love that little wasp, she's just hangin out with everyone else ♡
I love bees, but the second I see a wasp. I be sprinting the other way
As a psychotic person I used to have a bee as a friend AT 6-
Most bee species don't care you're there and are chill and harmless unless you threaten them.
Ur like a proud bee parent
Haha I am 😅
Wasps are usually pretty chill until fall months and that's when they get their meanest
The hive bees: FOOD!
That one wasp: LET ME JOIN THE PARTY!
Amazing!! Can see the effect of us taking their food supply from them for ourselves.. thinking all is smooth.. they dont miss it when extracting.. when this is reality.. we just starving them while they do all the work...
By far your the most generous bee keeper I've seen yet by sharing it back 🙏🙌🙌🙌🙌💓💞🎉
I was like 'awww cute bees' then the wasp showed up and my fight instincts kicked in
A lot of people are scared of wasps, but I’ve found them to be reasonably friendly. The ones that live outside my grandma’s house are very chill.
I couldn't with that wasp, bee person, i do want some of that honey though omgoodness it looks so fkn good.
This is so wholesome, my heart is warm.
This is cute. I wish I could keep bee hives cause I think bees are adorable but I’m so allergic to bees- doing that alone would be life threatening XD
People: "wasps are so aggressive!"
Wasp: "don't mind me, just getting a snack and will be on my way soon enough"
I could never😂 I’m terrified of wasps
It’s not really the wasps that ever bother me or the bees, it’s the yellow jackets!
The one wasp tryna blend in
Its funny how a wasp just came up like: "what the bees doi- ooh honey! *licks like bubble from tadc pilot* "
"I decided to bring out another piece of honeycomb..."
*suffocates bees with honey*
Nah idk how you can be calm like that i like bees they are cool especially bumble bees and honey bees they are so cute but IM ABSOLUTELY AFRIAD OF THEM
The wasp read the message, "You mess with our girl, you mess with the entire country" 😂
When I was a child I thought that since bees make honey, wasps must make syrup. 😅
