Would you believe that it took longer to edit this video than it did to do this hive removal? Too much footage on too many cameras. I enjoy the process though so if you enjoyed the beekeeping and bee removal videos come on back for more. I've got years worth of content recorded and I'll probably never run out of material.
I don't know what the total on the honey was but it was well over five gallons if I had to venture a guess. I didn't get to stick around long enough to see if the dirty combs filtered out or not.
I set the bees up in a hive box next to the portable carport you see in the beginning of the video. They stayed and are doing fine.

Is there any way to talk to y’all
@@AngryMan666 What are some other good ones?
@@mojothelittleones113 Just saw your message MoJo. My email is 628dirtrooster@gmail.com
I feel for how much you sweat. I've found by experience that eating things that contain a lot of sugar makes me inordinately hot. But then again some people just naturally sweat more than others. My son is like you.
I thought Caleb pulled the Queen out of the comb earlier in the video??
Awesome job on showing just how much work bee removals really are, and a super job of editing all that footage to give a concise account of the dismantling of the hive from start to finish. The only time I don't like honey is when it's pouring down on me from above, but it does make my skin soft and my hair shinny. God's peace brother.
Dismantle is a good word to describe this one. I’m glad these only come along once every year or two.
Mr. Jeff, I was wondering why you weren't assisting. But you two seem to do more joking around than bee removal. It's always a great video when you two get together.
"...dismantling of the hive from start to finish." - Did I miss 'finish'?
Mr. Jeff this comment brought me peace and joy. Thank you.
@@crdorado1195 Mr. Jeff was probably home doing his laundry.
As a bricklayer I appreciate you taking the time to "tooth" the brick out without destroying them! An occasional broken brick happens but that'll be a pretty easy repair.
I still don't get how you just blast holes in there with a hammer drill and they don't swarm you.. lol
Nice work as always!
NOW THAT WAS A BIG JOB I HOPE THEY PAID WELL-- HUGGS TO YOU AND THE MRS.....GLO
Hi Glo. Good to see you in here. Hope all is well up there.
Wow, that's a lot of work getting those bees. That must of been the job Mr. Ed said he turned down. lol!
No but he would have turned this one down.
I'm a big guy and may i recommend swim shirts. They are light weight and dry quick and are amazing at hiding sweat. They have em on Amazon
You are an actual hero doing important work. It looks like hard work but you're keeping people safe, and protecting one of the most essential species on the planet... Bees, not humans. Humans ruin everything. Thanks for making these videos!
Did you end up finding the queen or did you have to add one? I’m glad there wasn’t any robbing until the end with it being open for so long with so much honey. Thank you for another great video.
I haven't looked for her yet but the box is working like she's in there. They are bringing in pollen and everything.
There were so many layers of comb in that colony I thought that you'd never finish this removal.
What a job -- a removal from a brick column -- during brutal heat and humidity. Ugh.
It was like a Tardis colony - the column didn't seem like it was deep enough to support all that comb!
There are a lot of places in the world that are hot, or humid, or get very little wind. The unusual misery is to have all three at the same time. That's why you see marathons in the desert sometimes, but never in the swamp.
Your wife is the sweetest!! I love when she makes an appearance.
I know the feeling of too many camera's with footage. Some of my videos that are filmed in 4 hours take over 8 hours to get edited together! I solved that problem by buying a dozen batteries for the camera, & a 128GB memory card. With these in the arsenal, I am now able to film almost everything on one camera.
I usually use my Iphone but it's getting close to time for an upgrade. None of my cameras are really suited for the environment I work in.
@@628DirtRooster Yeppers! all that honey would wreak havoc with most camera's.
This hive is SOLID with honey! Most per volume possible without messing with the brood combs, I would think. Amazing!
I really like that you were showing the family and the kid about the bees. They seemed really interested.
We had a great time hanging out.
Well damn, that is a vast amount of honey. Imagine all the mead you could brew with that!
Did you find the QUEEN 👸 🐝?
I haven’t looked yet but they are working like they’ve got one.
I’d like to see the job with the two-layer brick wall, if you ever feel up to it.
It’s always a hot one at 628 Dirt Rooster
True
Randy, where do you get the gallon jug of bee quick
www.betterbee.com/harvesting-equipment/bq1gal-gallon-bee-quick.asp
I just got another one in last week. It's expensive but it works.
I had to buy hearing aids
And my right side was dead
It turns out it was you
Thank God
What is the thickest comb you've ever removed?
Probably three inches

Wish I could have bit into that one!
You are very light hearted. Kinda wish I could manage that it must be nice. o:

@@mittensfastpaw If not you will be soon. :)
When people say:: YOU WON'T BELIEVE WHAT WE FOUND! my answer is:: JIMMY HOFFA ?!
All that work i hope you found the queen can't wait for update coming!
I think I got her by the way the colony is performing.
Very cool bee catch. ❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻💯
Thank you kindly
You are so close to a 100K subscribers! You have to show us that silver play button! 😊
I'll put it on a chain and wear it. haha
I love watching you do this I wish I could but unfortunately I'm allergic to bee stings specifically honey bees but I don't hate the bees I love honey 🐝
I love my Thrunite headlamp. A workingman's friend.
It's been great so far.
This was incredible!!! Huuuuuge
Really was a big one.
... Wake me up before you go go... Like Oh My Gawd 😅😮😂
Great vid. Always love the editing and music. And the bee part too I guess.
Thanks a bunch!
I don’t even mind the click bait
"you'll never guess what we found!". Was it bees? I bet it was bees.
Or 🍯. Or 🐝 and 🍯
Definitely some sort of stringing insect!
That’s a reference to something...
@@crappyfillmore7773 Stringing ? 🤔
BEElieve?
Now that was a job! So much so that I had to wear one of my Dirt Rooster hats just to watch it! Your labor editing this video was greatly appreciated by me. So, keep the content coming! Cheers, my friend!
Heck yeah! Gotta wear the right gear for the video. :)
The architects of that house are very thoughtful - leaving so much space for the bees.
Just popped in to see you down a breakfast burrito & remove a 3 day colony out of a brick column. 😉
These behind the bricks colonies are no joke!
Great job, good show. 👍🐝
It was two burritos. I just didn’t record the second one. 😊
628DirtRooster Bees hold out! 😜
Are there old videos explaining bee behaviour? I've been watching and listening about mating flights and swarms and nurses etc. etc. I'd really like to get some good foundational knowledge. I'm quickly becoming fascinated by something I know nothing about 💯😅
These constructors who decide to use brick as a decorative layer, should learn to fill everything with concrete. Having an empty space like that is a huge mistake
No way man. I'm a bricklayer by trade. There's a treated 6"x6" that supports that deck inside the brick column. The brick isn't even needed, it's just for looks.
And if it needed to be structural it would handle that just fine.
Filling it with concrete would create an extremely hard core and the soft(ish) brick expand and contract with heat, cold, freezing, and thawing. This would more than likely cause severe cracking.
@@MMGJ10 I'm living in Europe, we build everything out of brick and mortar. We have been filling holes and walls with concrete, mortar, gravel and what haves you for centuries. Unless it's an area with extreme temperature differentials it's perfectly okay to use.
Leaving that space empty is still a problem. If water finds it's way in there, it can rot away the 6x6. It's also more prone to pests. Bricks are a structural element, so they should be used like one, or just quit using them.
Filling the void costs money which adds to the cost of the house with very little additional benefit gained. The costs of housing is already getting too high in a lot of areas. Every penny counts.
@@Page5framing in that case, the owner needs to put glass/wood/metal doors on 2 sides of each column, so that next time the bees get in, the whole thing can be removed without having to rebuild the brickwork every time they appear.
2005Guyver02 by and large the bees getting into a column is a very very very rare occurrence. The building trade cannot plan for every possible outcome. That is simply not Feasible. We plan for the things that do occur (wind, rain and weather, fire, earthquake, mold and mildew). Pest infestation is entirely out of the realm of home construction. That would be a maintenance issue.
And although they did save the bees they did not have to. They could have sprayed them and killed the hive. As horrid as that sounds to all us bee lovers out there. (Just sayin. Don’t kill me for it).
"You have my breakfast?", reply, "You about had mine" She's beautiful AND witty!
Yeah, that was a good quick one she came up with, lol.
Why did i think he was holding a sandwich in the thumbnail😂
I thought the same!
Ditto
You know for someone who is scared of bees, I don't know why I watch these videos. I just keep watch one video after another. They are entertaining and I'm just amazed that someone actually keeps bees.
"My britches are still saturated" -the dirt rooster 2020. lol great video as always, thx for the content and hope you have an awesome day
Now that would be a great shirt, with bee hovering over a fountain cup with a cartoon version of him from behind where it looks like he peed. I'd wear it for sure.
My GOSH that was HUUUGE!! How many layers was it at the end?
I'm bummed we didn't get to see you clip the queen with all those girls!!
And NO vacuuming? That's a first for me!! Did you find out how much honey they got? WOW WOW WOW!!!🐝🐝🐝😁
I think it was ten layers but I can't remember.
Great camera technique viewing with your truck mirror. Very clever!
Wrong title. I help you to correct it: You won't BEElive what we found!
Hey Mr Dirt! I hope you`re having a wonderful day! I always keep a 32 oz bottle of Louisiana honey handy when I watch your videos and sip on it when I see the honey dripping everywhere. Makes me feel like I`m there with you! LOL!
I'm very impressed with Caleb's work in this one, he's going to turn out to be a fine young man, and possibly even a fellow hobby beekeeper as well!
I have no doubt he will be a fine young man. He's got great parents.
That's a brave kid. I would've been terrified to go over there at his age. A pro at smoking the hive too I see. Nice to see Mrs. Dirtrooster out on the job as well.🥰 Great vid...👍
I'm pretty sure Jeff would have passed on that job :)
Because of how tall the column was or because of how spooky it was in there?
628DirtRooster Bees Height :)
That’s one brave little boy poking his finger in there!
Huge koodos to you for removing such a big hive in that heat! We’ve been in a heat wave for a week and I couldn’t imagine having to do that!
I LOVE your channel and it literally makes me want pet bees 🤣 I’ve got over my phobia of bees and now my 5 yr old son and I watch the bees and the orange bottom bumblebees in the flowers daily. They are so cute!
Cannot wait for the next video
All of my hives to this point have come from bee removal... I started in 2016.
With 5 of my strongest hives placed on rural property , I took in 500 LB of honey last season, and left honey on the hives for winter.
I have asked myself many times why I didn't start decades ago.......So, Why wait?
If you have raised a child to age 5.. you already know what it takes to keep bees.
Are you Hungry?.. ok I feed you... are you sick . ok I treat you... No? not hungry or sick... go play. :)
Once I was photographing some type of giant bumble bee. I had never seen them before and I was very intrigued.
Didn't see a stinger on them so I had a good time following them around then my stupid brother tells me I'm lucky I didn't get bit.
I got chills all over and sure as heck didn't go out when the bees were around.
The stuff you get yourself into to get the bees 🐝. Definitely not an easy task. Honey bee keeping is a “way of life”
I get suckered into them. ;)
Considering the weather those may be good bees calm and cool
So this honey is black from the mortar dust? Man, this could be a documentary series, you have such a nice way of narrating what you're doing. You seem like an empathetic person and that's beautiful. And the bees are cute!
Well rooster that’s a tough place for a hive 🐝!!! Great 👍 job, and mostly on the ground 😋
You could never work in a coal mine. They like the short skinny people. You ain't neither. Thank God the bees don't live in them or you would have to call me and I don't like confined spaces!
Not sure I'd fare well in a mine. No air flow on the surface is bad enough.
All things considered those bees were really passive and good natured.
Peace
At 6:54, you grab that bee off your face like it was nothing! Normal people would've been screaming
Son, it’s summertime - hot hot hot! Every time I check my colonies I am soaked
Isn't this what you do to support yourself? Why would anyone think you're going to do this for free?
It is but people still think it should be a cause. Not sure how they think the "cause" is supposed to be funded.
@@628DirtRooster People are dumb haha. If you do something well you can't do it for free. Everyone should know that.
Take care brother
Bees 🐝 glorious bees 🐝, wonderful to see the youngster involved in the cut out . Fantastic save, story you had to cope with the humidity and rain 🌧.
I'm glad he was there to take part.
Why would anyone give a thumbs down for such a fantastic cutout like this?
They didn't like my ugly mug.
Sweaty butt crack = swamp butt That’s what grandpa called on the farm. What a lot of honey!!!!
Great Job! I don't touch masonry. I did learn from you regarding the Bee Go, though. I had a cutout in a barn a couple of weeks ago. They wanted to crawl back into the barn. I didn't have any Bee Go, but diluted some Honey Robber and out they came! It made a nice hive, full of queen cells.
It definitely comes in handy during some removals.
I love your chanel. When I go to visit my grand children we go on walks looking for bees. My sisters neighbor has a hive in the roof. Is It bad that she is not addressing it?
Well.... as far as I've observed they only get bigger with time. They'll remove foam insulation to make room. I think it just depends.
It could cause her some pretty nasty problems at some point depending on exactly where they are and how big the hive gets.
@16:45! Wow that is pretty comb!
Wow. That’s something I’ve never seen in a Mississippi travel brochure. 😳
Hey, Caleb, you have to watch out for the Dirt Rooster. Pretty much every video he finds somebody to do the work while he does “videography”, whatever that is.
It's the old Tom Sawyer routine.
Holy moly that hive is humongous😳😱🐝 All that honey looks delicious😋 I saw in the description how much was yielded. Wow!! That storm u guys had was no joke too. Love your channel I watch all your videos🤗😍🙌🏼👏🏼 Stay safe, cool n healthy 💜😷✌🏼️
Thanks so much for watching Jill.
Are they less likely to sting your hands if you're covered in honey?
P.S. Us fat boys do sweat in this weather 🤣
Only slightly
Guess mother nature answered you about cleaning them hives. Awesome work man
That was a labour of Hercules DirtRooster. You deserve a medal. You've got a fledgeling beekeeper there.
Thank you very much for sharing and see you soon.
Glad you enjoyed it. See you soon.
Enjoy every video i watch and if i wasnt in the burbs i would make bee keeping a way of life
Maybe one day
Amazing how you guys are masters of deconstruction and reconstruction as needed...that's not even to mention dealing with the bees themselves.
It's kind of disturbing wearing headphones when you put the camera in the hole.
😆
I never get tired of watching you do cut outs!!! Love the different ways they build and care for their hives... that one was so very long!! Thank You!!
Frogs in the background?? Miss that sound
Thanks 👍
Love watching your cutouts. Keep up the great work
Thanks, will do!
Howdy mr dirt rooster. I live in Breathitt my and I recently have had a confirmed sighting of Asian hornet. I killed one and had it verified. Biggest thing I ever saw scared me to death.
Glad you got it before it got you
i don't what noise was going on 30 minutes into the video, but it start to drive my little quiet dog to bark. Scared the honey out of me!
Dang !! Never seen anything like that on your channel before ...
I missed all three of my guesses. 1. Amelia Earhart’s airplane. 2. Adam Schiff’s high school “Mr. Integrity Award”. 3. Nancy Pelosi’s original “Wizard of Oz” costume complete with the black pointy hat. Dang it!
You win the award for the most awesome guesses.
Bet you wish you had that car back before you rearranged it. Lol. I've done the same
I definitely do. We used to do that a lot. We'd buy junkers at the New Orleans impound sale and go "bush beating" (our name for mud ridding in a giant sedan). I rolled a 1970 Malibu wagon in the power lines one time.
The tree frogs sound like minions
Haha
Natures bounty... Those hive full of honey is so beautiful.. I miss adrenaline when seeing those fully loaded hive when harvesting... Btw good job sir, godbless. fom Philippines
Hi Ronnel. Thanks for watching.
I sweat like that to Rooster 🐓 GOD BLESS y’all Amen 🙏
I sure would like to see you wear hearing protection, even just ear plugs. Because you really don't want to end up with hearing like mine.
Holy crap that's a mountain of honey.
I would love to have a good piece of honey comb
Lot of work and a lot of honey. What was that background noise in the last few minutes of the video ?
I've been watching your video's since the lady from the camper and I love them. God bless you and your family and friends 🙏 ❤. I like to always watch a few video's to see if I'm going to like it and subscribe and you know what you have a new subscriber keep them video's coming, it's the only way I can bee around because I'm allergic to bees. 🐝🐝🐝🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
@628DirtRooster Bees: BE CAREFUL USING TRASH BAGS FOR THINGS YOU PLAN TO EAT. Most trash bags are now treated with chemicals to help break down the plastic in the landfills. USE ONLY FOOD SAFE BAGS. You can get them from restaurant suppliers.

How do we order your honey
One of your best videos yet. The rain make everything good. Btw u was recommended to me 1 year ago & I check your account everyday to see new videos. I watched every video you ever uploaded. Good job man
Probably a stupid question but maybe someone answers - how come the bees aren't trying to attack you when you remove the nests? It's amazing, you're literally tearing down their home and they're like "whatever, I guess we're moving then". It's great to watch.
I'm surprised you don't take a cooler with drinks and ice in that hot climate down there. I'm from Pa. And don't leave home without one in summer months working. I guess it gives you a little break away from job. I like to get away from jobsite myself for a break but I would still keep a cooler good vid as usual
