- JPthebeeman Gets "Owned" By Ninja Hackberry Queen!
Hackberry trees as a rule are junk trees, at least that's what I've heard as far as I can remember. They're weak trees & one of the first to fall over in stormy , windy weather.
The Hackberry tree featured in this video was in bad shape & leaning terribly towards a large apartment complex in Metairie, Louisiana.
The tree had to come down & that meant the bees had to come out of the tree, so I worked with the tree company & Big John aka Big Bad John the crane operator, to safely remove the bees.
The queen gave me the slip folks, try as I might I just couldn't spot her, during the removal process.
The next day though I was graced with her royal presence, win/win.
This colony went to my good friend Schawee & placed in his apiary in Gonzales, Louisiana.
He gave them more frames of capped brood & bees to boost their numbers.
He said they are doing fine.
JP is a beekeeper & live bee removal specialist located near New Orleans, Louisiana.
He will go just about anywhere to fool with bees.

My father was a beekeeper, I wish he could see you working with just your bear hands and no veil.
I love you man, you rock!
I love how much you care about these bees. It's fantastic. Thank you for giving them the love they deserve.
He is professional doing that for living $ money $
no matter how many times i see your videos it still blows my mind THAT YOU HAVE NO BEE SPACE SUITE ON lololol....you are amazing.
We could never do that in florida. We always have suits on when inspecting new hives on a call. Not so much when we inspect out own hives though. But on more than one occasion I have run into Africanized honey bees and if I didn’t have a suit on during my first inspection I would have gotten lit up. I mean they attack and stick to you like yellow jackets. Usually when a colony is disturbed they become a little agitated and they may send out a few workers to deal with you. Keepers combat this by smoking them, which forces them to gorge on honey and forget the threat. But when you disturb a Africanized colony they send out like half the hive and smoke never works.. At least for me. They do this because of their African ancestry. In Africa, honey bees don’t experience winters like we do here or other places around the world like in Europe where all honey bees came from. Because of this they don’t make and store honey in the great amounts we see in normal hives because they don’t need to stock food for winter. So the food they do have they protect vigorously. Sometimes sending out over half the hive to attack any would be honey thief’s. :-)
@@desertegle40cal WOW.
I am a beekeeper aswell , but never mend with them without a bee suit..
Cool story but I can't get over the thought of a 40 caliber Desert Eagle. What's next? A 7.62x39 Barrett?
It's so fascinating to watch how this whole process works. Thanks for uploading these videos!
The Queen laughed and Laughed watching JP do his little dance! Great Video
instead of hooked on a feeling it’s hooked on JP the bee man videos haha . Always great to see you working your magic with this amazing and wonderful insects. Thank you for bringing us another video to enjoy .
JP I'm sixty years old and know nothing about bees but after watching a couple of your videos I'm learning fast. Thank You Larry
I'm learning too.
Learning to leave the little blighters alone and call in JP.
I know it’s weird, it makes me wanna do it even thought I’ve always been scared of them lol
thanks JP for sharing the bee keeping
Nice. As always enjoyed your videos.
An learning from your reply’s.
Didn’t know about a law requiring bees have to be kept in boxes with removable frames. Thanks again.
Dang they set up camp in there! Aren't bees just fascinating?! We have 4 hives at the moment, even though I'm allergic to them I still like to sit & watch them as they fly in & out of the hive. 🐝🌼😊
omg i ve watched alot of your videos today jp the beeman ,loving the way u treat the bees when u help them ,greetings from Scotland x
Beautiful Queen, JP, thanks for the video. So glad you found her, now they have a good chance!
I loved watching this video. You truly love your bees. Thanks for sharing.
9:55 Sunday Germany. It's a pleasure to see the way you do your Artwork
Wow JP, you're Jack of all Trades. Now you're a lumberjack too. Very Awesome JP.
Yay! A new video..... liked before I even watched it. Wish you had the time to upload more often. I look forward to your videos
Awesome!!! Always great to wake up to a J.P. video! Stay safe out there!
How often do you think you get stung? Seems like they either don’t care about you being there, or else you don’t notice the stings anymore! Thanks for all your hard work, saving the bees!
I'm hooked on your show. Been watching every day for a week now. Daughter says she was hooked on the you tube bee keepers also . Very interesting I think I'll keep watching. Thanks.
Covering her up and loving her up - I like that 😌
You have the best videos out there for me to learn from. cheers.
Fascinating stuff. Thanks for sharing!
I love your work JP.
Always love your passion and care for the bees!
What a beautiful video beautiful bees🐝 buzz buzz❤️
Like Michael Palmer said.. Klingons didn't invent the Cloaking device... Queen bees did. ;) sneaky girl
Hey JP,
Very interesting video's you're making.
Great work by not putting any music in your video's.
Please do what ever you do and save some bees.
Greets from the Netherlands :-)
great save, and a big girl in the hive.
In this situation I combined two boxes with a queen excluder and a couple of sheets of newspaper in between them and the bees ate through the paper while exchanging pheromones and they were quite happy with this situation ( I could not find a queen in the top box, and it turned out there was none. Great video.
This great to watch how JP deals with these bees...I’d have already had a heart attack and in intensive care at Mary Black hospital here in Gaffney....I JP is the dominant master of these bees I swear j do...he sits there doing this with no suit or smoke....two thumbs up to JP and if they do sting him it looks as though it doesn’t bother him..❤️👍🏼
Always GREAT when Mamma's HOME!!
Mr jp great job sir
That is Awesome that there is a queen bee there, now the bees will be alright!!
Wow. Total champ. No protection, just good ole work making it happen
First few seconds in.. This is going to be good! 🐝🌲
Bro how do you do this so freakin casually without any bee suit or any protection? My anxiety is through God damn roof man I don’t get how you do it
Great Job Sir. 🙏
"We have our queen."
My thought: "Clever girl." :D
You use stihl? Huzzah a man of culture!
Having tried other brands I am now Stihl tried & true my brother. 👍🐝
@@JPthebeeman That's awesome man, I expected you to use a BUZZsaw.
If the world was ending in ten months, and all nation's on Earth we're building a Noah's ark space ship to colonize a new world, you , my friend, would be one of the people going on that trip!!!
Why do you wait until dark to pick up the bees? Thanks, Erin 😁
The worlds number one bee wrangler, not bloody bad on the chainsaw either ! !
Nicely done!
Does the color of the comb affect the taste of the honey? The combs you're working on are so dark, never really seen any like that.
Hey mate! How often do you get stung during a job like this? I’m such a wuss when it comes to bees / wasps!
Really depends on the day & the bees I’m dealing with. If I’m not suited up you know they were likely pretty gentle or The smoke that was applied allowed me to enjoy their company.
I don’t believe I was stung on this one if so it wasn’t many.
JPthebeeman That’s cool. Thanks for the reply!
By the way, your videos are really interesting and the editing is of high quality. Thanks for sharing your work and passion, keep up the brilliant work 👍
Woow incredible look how they build a bridge so they can pass the rest 20:38
At least on this job you able to sit down!! :) ;)
I have a question what happened to the first queen the before the another queen is born?!😧🤔 And also do the bees follow Their Queen wherever she goes?
XxSuperiorxX Anakin Squad i don’t know the answer to the first one, but they usually do follow the queen everywhere. That’s why he was looking for her because it makes it easier to move the bees into a new home if the queen is in it
Ricardo Perez think you!😊
How are you able to mess with those bees without wearing a bee suit???
Hello. How do I contact JP about massive bee removal in my stone building wall in Louisiana?
Fr. John Wiltse JPthebeeman.com
How do you not get stung?
JP, sometimes you vocalize the way you orient the comb in the frame, sometimes not. Is it really that important? I just put it in the frame the best way it fits. Sometimes that is two narrow pieces of comb on top of one another banded into the frame. The top may become the middle or top on top and the other piece is flipped, so the top is on the bottom, or even sideways. I am fairly new to this and never noticed any directional differences in the comb. Also, is there any rule about how much honey you place in your box compared to brood?
R Dyer I believe it’s very important how the comb sections are oriented. Research “housel positioning bees.”
great video, how many time on a job like this do you get stung?
Absolutely amazing....but why aren't they trying to sting you?
If you smoke them to disorient them, and you show absolutely no fear, they typically won't feel threatened enough to sting, because instinctively they know that stinging will kill them.
Do you remove wasp and hornet nests?
JP made a mistske. He took vertical combs and mounted them horizontally.
P Draper you need to look at that again & see if you agree with yourself. 😉🐝
Fare play you got balls to do this everyday 👍🏻👍🏻
Love your videos, but you got guts! I am scared to death of all bee's , wasps and hornets.
Me too. 🐝🐝 It's a real phobia! 😨
@@amylmoquin519 I think I ghot stung as a child as I ended up in hospital as my throat closed. But not sure if it was sting or bite from other insect. Now I run.
Everything he says sounds cool.
Bees have been dying off at alarming rate. Haven't seen any this year. Our crops depend on bees.
Bee positive bee safe bee happy. XD
New knife? Lol...
PogU Bee MaN
I know wasps will eat bark/tree pulp, do bees?
Honey bees consume honey for carbohydrates, pollen for protein. They are capable of chewing through certain materials but only when trying to get at a food source, mainly honey or when trying to expand their colony inside of a void space. I’ve seen them chew through 3 mil contractor bags to get to honey & chew up soundboard & spray foam to expand the nest or gain entry to a specific location.
Do u know any bee keepers in Michigan
Maybe, just can’t recall at the moment.
@@JPthebeeman lol was just hoping maby get to meet u
jdog the first if we never meet in this lifetime pet a dog, your dog if you have one & say JP sends his love to you fur child. I’m a big dog lover, have a cat at the moment among my snake, tegu & blue tongue skink but my wife & I miss our dogs terribly!
We will have dogs again soon enough, man’s best friend ya know.
Enjoy your weekend & pet a dog for me now, okay? 😉🐝
@@JPthebeeman consider it done my friend and know me my wife 2dogs and 2boys all send our love ang good will to u and yours. Also my name is Jeremy Hendrick my friend's call me hippy
jdog the first I was raised by hippies. 😉🤘👍🐝
What do you charge for ypur services .... How do you determine how to charge ....
How in the world are they not stinging you to bits?
Hes getting stung for sure. Hes just used to it probably
why chec for the queen in the box if the hive has went in there? don't they folllow the queen?
Sometimes the bees don’t accept the set up you give them, even after placing their own brood comb in your set up.
That’s why I cage the queens on average 3-4 days. This way if the bees leave the set up they come back because she can’t leave.
After 3-4 days they usually have gotten it out of their system to leave & have committed to the new set up.
@@JPthebeeman thanks.
@@JPthebeeman I wondered why you caged the queen, great info.
Jp reminds me of mankind the wrestler
Do you get stung
انت كويس ياصديق
I love bees but I hate wasps
I had the opportunity to step on 2 red wasps over the last few days. They were practically under my feet but they weren’t bothering me or anyone or thing for that matter so I just enjoyed them for what they were, just another living thing trying to survive best they can on this planet.
They actually predate on caterpillars that might sting you so they’re in a way beneficial after all.
@@JPthebeeman O cool I dodnt know that thanks
ماشاء الله تبارك الله

Or you just put the log in your yard bees and all for some strong treatment free bees
You sounded so defeated when you couldn't find the queen, it broke my heart. I was so glad when you did find her! 🎉🎉
Yep, she owned my fat butt! Lol
Was very excited to find her in there the next morning. 👍🐝
👍
wow JP man you got some big balls to just sit there with those bees buzzing right in your beard hahaha. credit to you for caring so much about this beautiful living thing. "SAVE THE BEES" God bless you and keep you safe.
JP proves it again, its not the size of the chain saw but how you use it....pure chain saw finesse lol
I get stung: call an ambulance
You get stung: Yes sting me more
This is really hard and special work
Nothing like a Peek a Boo Queen, I am glad she made it with her hive.
But it is always nice to know you have a back up plan for when a Queen does not make it, or one is not there.
I wonder how often there's unfortunate casualties with the queen. Even when you're as caredul as you can be, accidents sadly do happen.
JP, you are the Bob Ross of beekeeping.
Brother from another mother. 😉👍🤘🐝
Happy little bees 🐝
You work so carefully and patiently. It’s clear you love what you do and you were born to work with bees! Love your videos so much.
I am really enjoying watching you my son who lives in Maryland his name is Warren Mcclung that’s why he got started by watching and learning from you and others he will be a perfectionistBecause that’s the way he is he will learn everything there is to learn all before he gets Annie beat
You are helping the planet getting better and better and you are also restoring faith in humanity once more ! Thank you very much for your effort and passion for these beautiful living creatures ! Have a nice weekend !
Another cool video. I love watching you work the bees. Thank you for teaching all of us your craft and about the bees.
If you had one of these massive hives in your structures at home, would you leave it there? Probably a stupid question because you already have a lot of hives in boxes in your backyard probably, but I just think of that when ever I watch your videos. Im just wondering if you would leave it there or remove it. You seem like you wouldn’t mine it at all.
Would love to leave them but there are actually laws in place in most states that bees have to be kept in hive bodies with removable frames.
This is so they can be inspected by the state for signs of issues, disease.
I did not know thanks jp learn something new everyday.
That sucks
@@mattp4768 It's good sense. American Foulbrood is a devastating disease, and while it's far from the only illness that can afflict hives, it's a really bad one to run across. The spores the disease puts out are very hardy and resilient. A worker from a badly infected colony can carry dormant spores with her to every flower she visits, depositing them as she walks and gathers and eats. Those spores then can wind up on bees from other colonies, and just like that, you can potentially have a spreading contagion.
Even worse, if it's a colony hidden in a wall that's patient zero, or if such a colony becomes infected, when the colony dies the spores remain. The next swarm to move in will then become infected, and the contagion will spread. When this happens, colony after colony in the surrounding area can become infected, succumb, die, and become a nexus of infection for the next colony.
The procedure for dealing with a hive that shows AFB is heartbreaking, too. You have to lock the bees into their box, then pour gasoline in there to kill the entire colony. Then, you can either send every piece of equipment from that hive to a specialist to be carefully irradiated and cleaned at an extremely high cost that guarantees total elimination of the spores... or you have to dig a deep pit. Start a fire in the pit. Then, piece by piece, take apart the colony, piece by piece. Every box side gets tossed in. One by one, every frame, still often containing bees that clung desperately as the poison killed them, joins in, and you watch everything burn. Honey boils and vaporizes. Wax ignites. Frames and backers go up like kindling. You feed every last piece of that colony that you have poured months or years of love and work into keeping alive into the hungering flames until every last trace of that once thriving hive is nothing but ash and burnt scrap.
And then you bury it where it burned. You bury it deep, so that if any spores survived the inferno, no curious scout bees can land on the faintly honey-tinged wreckage and bring the plague back home to their nest.
No beekeeper wants to lose a colony, and even fewer want to lose a colony and every last piece of equipment in that colony.
Having to relocate natural nests even when they are on your own property, even when they aren't harming anyone, is a small price to pay to keep the bees healthy and alive and to prevent great plagues from sweeping through your bee yards.
slavkei wow.. I appreciate you caring for my growing knowledge... learn something new everyday 👍
Thank you JP for your care and kindness. Thanks to Schawee too. I'm glad they went to Schawee. Tell him hello for me. Keep up the great work and I'll bee waiting for the next video.
Those were some nice straight combs for a tree hive. Looking cool as a cucumber out there. How are you not sweating?
Wasn’t that hot yet like it is now. Heck, it’s not really even that hot yet, give it another month. 😱😉🐝
@@JPthebeeman I'm gonna get job restocking the freezers at Sam's Club.

@@JPthebeeman We are supposed to get snow this weekend above 9000 ft. Colorado Springs is a weird place. Can you send some heat our way, my tomato plants are not happy at all?
OldTimerGaming I’ll gladly send you some heat in exchange for snow! 🤘👍🐝
Great video,i really enjoyed it..There are a lot of blessings in working with animals, especially honeybees.. Greetings from Holland..
Another wonderful rescue JP❣️ I appreciate your hard work and love the videos 💜💛🐝👏✌️
Great job and video JP, how many stings did you get on this job? Thanks for confirming my thoughts that the queen would turn up the next day, they can be very hard to spot when cover with workers trying to protect her. Again thanks for your time.
This wasn’t a big colony numbers wise, they were very gentle. Don’t believe I received any stings during the process. ✌️🐝
Love the videos JP. Can’t wait for the next one. Once I’m done with veterinary school, I’m going to start with a few hives of my own. Keep up the great work!
How can you sit there and not get stung?
Yes hackberry trees are not something you want. A nuisance tree that bears fruit that birds love, grows fast and weak, and as a result, are awful for your fence lines.
They can all be replaced by my favorite nuisance tree if it were up to me, the dreaded Chinese Tallow! 😉👍🐝
Stung only a few times Lol God bless and keep you Bee man.
EXACTLY
You, my friend, are an artist. That is some tough old comb you had to carve up.
I'm on holidays in Portugal an I keep finding myself watching your bee vidoes.. so I got you about 20 new viewers ....hardly anyone knows th life of a honey bee an th importance of these little dudes.. keep safe from Ireland 🇮🇪 in Portugal 🇵🇹😂😂😂
Really appreciate you & your friends. Please tell everyone hello for me & to bee positive. 😉👍🐝
We love you bro... u crazy cat Jp 😻😻😻😻
A true gentleman aswell ...🇮🇪🇮🇪
Does anyone know what old honey comb tastes like?
How nice to see you JP, always a treat to watch you work! Keep saving bees, we need you!!! ✌🏼
Glad you found her. Ninja hackberry Queen.
Okay, it’s official, I’m using that in my title! 👍👍🐝
