- They Discovered This Hiding In The Bushes And Immediately Called Me
Sometimes Honeybees find the strangest places to call home. Some of these locations are not by choice but they make a go of it anyhow. Open Air colonies are a result of a swarm of bees not able to reach a location they intend to start a new home. Weather is a major factor that can hold them up during their travels. If they stay to long in one place, their need to build comb starts and if they build too much, they don't leave. That is a very basic explanation to how these bees ended up on this families fence. I feel that had a window of about 2 weeks being there based on many factors. Previous weather issues, color of their comb and the stages of the larva in the cells.
I hope you enjoy this experience as much as I did. Finding a colony out in the open like this is a beekeepers dream and a natural thing of beauty.
How amazing!!! When I got the call from a warehouse in North Alabama about a honey bee issue they were having, I tried to picture how a colony of bees could move into a void space between a loaded pallet. The fact they had only known the bees to have been there for a few days made it just as interesting. In my mind, it was just bees enjoying the salts from the bags on the pallets. maybe....
So off to the bees I go. When I got on location I saw a bigger issue than the pictures they sent. There were A BUNCH of bees and they weren't just visiting. in fact, I would soon realize they had been there a lot longer than 4 days.
And so the story goes and the video rolls. Hope you enjoy this episode with Yappy Beeman and another colony of bees in places they don't need to bee.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I did and remember, I am a trained professional.....wink wink. Don't try this at home. or anywhere else for that matter.
Honeybees can always be dangerous and it is not recommended to attempt to remove them with experience with bees or construction knowledge.
I hope you enjoy this little bit of fun. I enjoy your feedback in the comments and thank you for taking the time to check out my channel. Until the next time, enjoy the show.
Yappy Beeman is a professional bee remover performing live honey bee removals in Alabama as "Alabama Bee Rescue" and relocates them to apiaries away from residential areas so they can rebuild and thrive as a honey bee colony producing honey. Yappy is an Alabama Beekeepers association member that has performed over 1000 live bee removals. Yappy with the help of his great friends Jpthebeeman, 628 Dirtrooster bees, Jeff Horchoff and many others, I have learned many skills to remove bee swarms and honey bee colonies safely for the bees and home owners alike.

Here is a little bee educational material for ya.
Africanized honey bees (known colloquially as "killer bees") are hybrids between European stock and the East African lowland subspecies A. m. scutellata; they are often more aggressive than European honey bees and do not create as much of a honey surplus, but are more resistant to disease and are better foragers.[23] Accidentally released from quarantine in Brazil, they have spread to North America and constitute a pest in some regions. However, these strains do not overwinter well, so they are not often found in the colder, more northern parts of North America. The original breeding experiment for which the East African lowland honey bees were brought to Brazil in the first place has continued (though not as originally intended). Novel hybrid strains of domestic and re-domesticated Africanized honey bees combine high resilience to tropical conditions and good yields. They are popular among beekeepers in Brazil.
Honey bees appear to have their center of origin in South and Southeast Asia (including the Philippines), as all the extant species except Apis mellifera are native to that region. Notably, living representatives of the earliest lineages to diverge (Apis florea and Apis andreniformis) have their center of origin there.[7] - Навчання та стиль
I love that you always explain their behavior, like fanning, mood, and now how this temporary home came about :D
I kinda think that the bees know that Yappy is doing his best to help keep them safe. I couldn't guess where the queen was but for once I finally saw her just before you pointed her out. 🐝
Nice job. These bees were so chill that wasn't sure until i found her.
This is Great! Was fortunate to be part of a vacuuming/collection session for a swarm on a neighbor's tree a few years back. The bee guy I called asked me to spray the swarm with a hose- I said 'uh-no way I am going near it!' I waited for him to arrive. Went in fearful, came out respecting not only the bee collector, but the thousands of friendly bees flying all around me and landing on me. It was an amazing experience. Wonderful, incredible creatures. I always stop the mower and wait for them to move. We need our honey bees to survive. Thanks for your important work.
I think I held my breath through the whole removal! And I guessed hive from their waggling. And I did see her in the group shot. I feel like I am getting better at this from a distance...but not ready for my own hive yet. Sticking with my solitary bee hotels for now. 😊
I'm in the wrong career field. I HATE being an accountant. This guy seems so happy and joyful with his work!
Yappy, I like when you feed the bees marshmallows while they are settling into a new home.
Thank you for your content, you have taught me that bees are not our enemies and can be quite calm in the presence of humans
LOL, I guessed wrong. Oh well, at least I spotted Her Majesty just before you pointed at her. Glad these ladies got a good new home, thank you Yappy! 🥰🐝
All good. Maybe on the next one. I appreciate the honesty and I promise I'm not keeping score on right vs wrong. Lol
Nature sure is wonderful! Bees just doing bee things! Thanks for sharing Happy Beeman!
Open air colony with all that brood, they have been thriving, I wonder how large it would have gotten as an open air colony. Ty much Yappy, I've only seen a few videos of bees that decided to go open air and start building.
I think she was in the hive, there didn't look like there was any bees pooling up around her in the box so I figured chances were she was in the hive. Have a great weekend Yappy.👍
I am amazed they could build so much comb so quickly. Another awesome video!
When they swarm, they are loaded up and ready to start building comb as soon as they find a suitable spot. Sometimes that works against them when they are forced to stay too long in one location.
It is absolutely fascinating how bees build such spectacular structures. 🐝🐝🐝
Wow! Amazing. Bless you and the bees! So peaceful!
I guessed she was in the hive, fun that I guessed right lol. I saw the break in the comb in the intro and really hoped it wouldn't fully break and dump the poor Bees, glad to see you got it all sorted Yappy!
Love your video's Yappy, and just love the way you talk to your bee's, you have a fantastic way about you !!! Thank you so much, it's amazing to see and watch somthing I'll never experience,
Those bees are so chill like they know you or something lol. Great job
Yup, I am a nerd. I was actually worried that the bee’s would fall when you were removing that. Years ago I could have given a careless about how “happy” they were. Man how things have changed for me since watching this channel.
In a Yoda voice......Change your mind I have. Happy I am for you.
I LOVE watching these videos. The fact that you can find one queen out of all those 1000's of bees is CRAZY. Super cool
Fun Removal Happy Bees
Good capture. That was a huge open-air colony with productive genetics. Thanks for sharing.
Thoroughly Yappified and I had NO doubt that the queen was somewhere in the state. Border, not confusion. BLESSINGS!
Beautiful gentle bees, lovely little capture
What I never knew about queens is they start running really fast when you fail to pick them up the first try 😁
It's swarming season which means it's new Yappy videos season! The best time of year!
Yappie got his buzz on ! Keep posting those videos.
I thought she’d be in the box as the vacuum container seemed a bit sparse. Another interesting video, hope you have a good year.
That looked like a lot of fun. I honestly thought Her Majesty would be in the catch box.
Great video Yappy♥️
Thank you. It was fun
@4:10 "They're still being as nice as they can Bee" Lol
Glad you found the Queen, aka, "Momma."
THANK YOU again Yappy 🐝man...I can't express my gratitude enough for caring for are bee friends 🐝🐝 🐝..."I'm on the other side of the fence... if you see the queen 👑🐝 you better yell & tell me...😄 luv your 🐝 humor & keep your videos coming your the BEEst! 😃
This time of year is my favorite time to watch your videos Yappy. We had a swarm on a mango tree a few years ago and I wish I knew how to host them. Now we’re getting ready for a homestead and your videos and others are gearing us up for keeping bees
I love bee's! 🐝. Thank you for saving them.
Spot the queen is definitely my favourite game!😉
Yappy has to be happy with the bees 🐝 this is my sixth time watching, I’m addicted, it’s 4:33am
I guessed the queen was in the hive, glad I was right, that's the first time I've seen an open air hive, that's really cool, I always worried that vacuuming them would hurt them but I see it doesn't, I have one question thou, why don't you use the comb from the hive they have already made, wouldn't it be better than getting rid of it especially if it's got alot of brood and food for them instead of them starting from scratch all over again? Maybe I'm just still new about all this bee keeping but I just thought it would be great that they had the comb from their original hive to build onto in the box that the comb could be put into the frames for them to use and not have to start over. It was a great video and I am so glad you care about the bees and take great care to protect them and give them a new home, looking forward to more videos, hope you have a great weekend. 😊
I am so glad it was closer to you. I can rest in peace that as the bees will be gently persuade to move to new accommodations, and get about their business. Thanks Yappy🎉🎉🎉🎉😊
Really pretty comb.
Great work!
There’s a colony near me that’s high up on the side of a tree. It’s been there since last year. I’ve not been to see it for a few weeks, but I don’t know if they’d survive the winter. I couldn’t see much activity last time I was there.
I was wrong I thought she was still in the catch box those girls were too calm and clustered in the corners. The knew you were trying to help them and give them a new home too. Have a great day
Pretty cool Yappy.
Because they were fanning on the frames, I assumed she was in the box with the frames.
Nice observation
Yaaaaaap another great video!!!!
Great
Love those new boxes
Me too. Very strong, great craftsmanship
Wow!
Good job
More videos please! 😮
Love 💕 this video too!
Love the video
Thanks to this man I can now identify a queen bee
excellent
Good work man, Keep the videos coming. Greetings from Trinidad and Tobago in the Caribbean.
Hello back from the States. Thank you for commenting your location. It's really cool to see people from all over the world viewing my work.
I never doubted you’d find the queen!
😎🐝❤ people like thet 🙏😊
That happens more often up here in New England because of the colder temperatures.
This was a hard choice, they are very calm in both boxes,but I picked the framed box because her scent was in the empty boxes so the bees could sense that,but the box with frames if she wasn't in there the bees would be leaving,or Fanning.which they weren't.
I could watch your videos all day.
.im trying to catch a swarm.. just to have them on my peoperty
im in pell city al
Thanks for.sharing
Thanks for watching. Good luck on catching some bees. They are fun.
How exciting for you, happy for the bees. I did spot the Queen just before you said where she was. I am getting better and a bit faster to seeing her. Content all round. I do get upset for them but know they are treated well and that is all one can hope fore. Cheers mate🎉🎉🎉😊
Wow Crazy never knew they can be open in the opening so cool if you were i am lol this is so cool Yappy thanks so very much Love love your videos have a great Weekend think she in the hide box
Thanks for the support. I always appreciate the kind comments.
Had one of these two years ago about 2/3rds that size in a bush next to a house. They built under a bird nest.
I didn't bother to guess because she wasn't slipping by Yappy that's for sure! Good work Yappy!
Lol.....great comment. Thanks for watching
She’s in the hive!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Good job
I thought she was in the hive!😊
Heheh, I was right, I guessed hive -- thought they were all calm because they knew she was 'at home'.
"Let's see what kind of mood they are in"
Looking how they don't care about their hive being broken and their sisters being sucked into a vacuum, I'd say they're quite depressed.
Great job yappy you have inspired me to do swarm collection I was always facinated with it but a little afraid And yes what type of vaccum do you use like that technique. Love from 🇯🇲 land of reggae,and Bolt.
That is awesome! Be careful but many blessings with your new hobby.
What type of vacuum do you use for your swarm collection?
In the box. The hive is fanning to the others.
In the hive. I see some workers fanning.
Crazy
👍
I knew she was in hive!
fanning on top of hive = queen in hive?!
well we had a 50/50 chance of guessing right. and as fate would tell i guessed??????not gonna say. another unique bee rescue. how do you top this one? stay well
In the hive, i see them fanning
im a new viewer and love these new sub! :D
Welcome to my little corner of the world. Enjoy
@@YappyBeeman :)
She is in the catch box
I thought she was in the hive, lol!
SHES in the catch box,
I think she’s in the catch box .. I’m no bee keeper I just watch bees on UA-cam.. lol 😂 So I think I know a lot
love u yappy! just curious.- how often would you say u get stung?
Depends on the colony. During spring when the bees are busy , its really not that much. Summertime they are a little more defensive.
in the catch
when you vacuum them does it kill them because ive seen videos of the inside of vacuums in videos like these and all the bees die. i know you care about the bees thats why im curious
She’s in the hive box
Do the bees survive being vacuumed up?
Yes. It is not a regular vac. That would kill them.
I thought the hive because in the box the bees didn't really have any particular direction that the majority were moving in.
Aren't open beehives like that susceptible to deadly wasp or hornet attacks?
What was the company that you were thanking? For the bottom board?
