Bee Removal In 100 Degree Weather
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 чер 2024
- External colonies or "open air" colonies rather are not particularly uncommon in southeast, Louisiana but are not the norm either.
I relocate anywhere from 3 to 6 open air colonies each season, some have survived out in the open like this for 3-4 years. We have very mild winters & that is the primary reason they can survive this many seasons.
In geographical areas with much colder winters it is unheard of for an open air colony to make it through even one winter.
The colony in this video was relocated because there were concerns they would bother roofers doing work just on the other side of the fence where the hive was located.
Open air colonies can in my experience be more aggressive than other bee colonies because the hive & bees are totally exposed which equates to you being more exposed to a larger amount of bees at one time.
So, what I'm saying is be prepared to tread lightly when dealing with an open air colony, keep your protective gear very close by & if you're not 100% confident, suit up.
If you're new to my channel just to let you know I fool with bees in some capacity roughly 10.5 months of the year or more, weather permitting.
I've been doing this type of work for many years so don't expect to jump right in & do what I do or how I do it without fooling with bees for some time, at least until you understand their biology & establish a comfort level around them.
If you enjoy my videos please consider subscribing to my channel & tell friends & family about this nutball cajun guy who loves to fool with bees, usually without protective gear but always with a smoker in hand.
Appreciate you & thank you for being here! - Навчання та стиль
JP, I have watched a lot of your videos and I must say this is the best one yet with the voice overlay and explanations you share. From 9 and more years ago your editing and video skills have come so very far! Awesome work!
Perfectly said @ElvinJewel!!! Totally agree!!
Thanks for including the piece on piping. Never heard that before. Pretty cool.
I've never heard of the term "piping" before. Thanks for educating us J.P.
Hey J.P., Very cool audio on the piping, that was a first for me. Who knew queens would be that loud. Please be careful out in the heat. They make a moisture wicking shirt that really does help to keep cool, I wear mine when I work out in the garden. Stay safe and healthy!
100 degrees and the humidity - rather you than me, but I ENJOYED THE VIDEO!! Thanks!
My hats off to you. Up on a ladder, juggling a vacuum and dealing with the tree and bees and everything else.
JP I think it's great that you teach so well as you work,
because people like me who may be scared as heck of bugs and bees, can learn more about nature "at a distance"....thank you!!!
I've enjoyed watching your page on UA-cam Mr bee Man PJ it's something you learn from people like yourself and your little ladies.
Hi JP, epic video mate, those open air colonies are amazing I very much doubt we would get open air colonies over here in the UK in fact we would never get weather like you wow over a 100 degrees shoot that’s hot man. I really enjoy your videos you are very informative and your camera work is fantastic. I very much doubt my british black bees would last like 2 minutes in your climate I guess your bees wear plenty of factor 10 sun tan cream where my bees wear Wellington boots and all have umbrellas that’s been are summer so far this year wet wet wet. Well thank you JP great for taking us along with you god bless mate.
We had summer it lasted 10 days lol 🤣🤣🤣
Thank you J.P The Beeman! Your videos are both informative and entertaining! You have a great day, because you know I am! 😎😊🐝🐝🐝🐝😁😎
I had to come back and tell you what I found out. Got some honey comb from our local bee charmer. Took it home watched some of your other movies, so great. I went to the kitchen, took out my salad spinner and put cut up pieces of comb. Twirled it. Surprise I have separated the honey from the comb. Just hade to tell you. Thanks for keeping bees safe.
Cool Video JP. Open air colons are so cool to see and I can certainly sympathize with you about the heat being I'm in Houston. Glad to see both colones were able to be saved. I was worried I wasn't going to be seeing any new videos from you after your Instagram post. Hope things are getting better for you and that you have a great day! God Bless!
You hit 200k, JP!!! Awesome!! Congrats! 🐝🌺💯
Thank you. I appreciate everyone taking the time to view my videos. Thanks for your feedback. ✌️🐝
Imagine how hot you would have been if you were wearing a bee suit. Good video JP, as always.
💓🐝THANK YOU For sharing your passion with us all about these beautiful majestic bees 🐝 it’s a joy to see & learn how they make there hives & how honey is made🐝💓
Thank you for the video, JP.
Every one you make and upload is an education.
Great video. Very informative. I really appreciate the ‘voice over’ your doing now. Very professional. Thanks for all you have taught me thru the years
People don't understand, no bees no people......Great work JP
254th! GOOD SUNDAY MORNING JP! Your 100degree weather is very different from the same temperature up here. I visited New Orleans when I was on a cruise. It was in November and it was in the 80s but the humidity was unbelievable! Loved the city, but I don’t know if I could live there. Watching you working in that condition blows my mind!

Good job J.P. love watching your UA-cam videos. They are very educational, wonderful job explaining everything you do and why you do it. Looking forward to your next video.
I learn so much from you. Never knew about piping. Absolutely marvelous!
7:08 some really interesting facts about the open air colonies, amazing, thanks for sharing all that you do.
Miss your videos, haven’t seen one in quit a while. I always like the instruction you give with you hive removals
JP you are so awesome how you handle the bees. Great job!!!!
The title is making me sweat and I'm only two minutes into the video.
At least it's not degrees Celcius.
Funny
So you're in PA? Here in south central PA, it's been 90+ the past two weeks or so. JP sure has my sympathy!
Glad to see you back doing what you love buddy. Nice video from the professor entomologist JP . Thanks
Awesome video! This is the second time I heard a Bee queen singing! Great!
First open air colony I’ve ever seen! 😮 too cool JP❣️ ♥️🐝♥️
So interesting to watch these bees being caught. JP knows so much about them. very educational for this 78 year old.
Alleluia we are definitely having fantastic time every time you are showing some new videos thank you Jesus like your friend is always saying thank you for the video is always wonderful to see a good skills that you do such beautiful work that you do with bees and God bless everything turns out very well and we'll hope we'll see more videos from you and I am sorry you have to deal with a 100 degrees. Maybe if you have less hair or you it will be much cooler . I don't know how you do that but I am from Russia from Siberia we have as high as 70 degrees. 100 definitely I will be died in there , thank you so much God bless you stay healthy be happy is Peace
Здравствуйте! Your country sounds like a nice place right now; even here in Pennsylvania, it's 90+ lately.
Amen, God is good
Thanks JP! Stay cool both ways!!!
My son and I really dig your channel 👍👍
I like your videos better with the live commentary rather then the over dubbed stuff. You can hear the energy in your voice when you're on the job.
This video is so educational I love watching your videos all time your very interesting to watch and that's what I like to watch when I'm bored. So hope you post more soon keep up the great Job! Your an Awesome BeeMan! ❤️🐝
Unfortunately I am always gonna have a fear of bees but I love to watch them and love to know more about them. You really do a great job teaching people about bees I think you should be JP the Bee Teacher lol your awesome stay Savage I will always be a fan! Btw I never got stung by any 🐝😂 that's why also I'm afraid to be near them I swell up really fast if anything ever punctures my skin or whatever lol I'm glad you help all these people because it shows your a true Hero 💯💪💁😍☺️❤️
Never a Dull moment with JP the bee 🐝 man 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝
You’re my favorite bee removal youtuber, you’re just so funny and enjoyable to listen to and watch!
Great video, JP! I learned a lot, thank you.
I've watched several of your videos , I myself can't get close like you do . I get stung by a bee I swell up big time
This was anotaher one of your good videos, thanks for showing
JP, after watching this video I took a few sips of South Louisiana honey right out of the 32 oz bottle. LOL! I eat way too much honey!
Glad you’re back hope your having a good day cause you know I am

Saved this one. Thanks JP 😍
As a new bee keeper you are my inspiration. I'm sure the inspiration of many others as well. Keep up the good work and remember, dont spray the bees. Save the bees.
Bees work altogether to produce honey for their own living. Unfortunately man considers that he worths it and deprives bees from it.
At least, man should let some of the honey for the bees.

A very good video JP glad I watched it all, full of surprises.

It is always a real wonder what bees do. I love bees. You are doing great. God bless you. And the queen is a real beauty again. 😍🐝❤
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️Love your videos...thanks for another great and informative adventure
Always good videos and always educational, thanks for what you do. Never fail to learn from you.
What a stunningly beautiful queen from the ambulance 💜
Fascinating...we get a few open air colonies...been doing outside removals for the last couple weeks here in Baltimore...it sucks working in the heat and humidity.
JP is the best bee man on UA-cam!
Lot to learn from this one and I was cool sipping sweet tea the whole time!
Can you tell me more about the virgin bee piping ? That is something i have never seen before. Also email me at scottyduck@gmail.com and let me know where I can send the new Brezebrush. I know you will probably never use it but you never know.
Awww... bees are so cute! You bumped her with your finger and she was like, "Excuse me!"
100 degrees and a dark shirt -ouch- I put on a bee suit just to get 1 frame out and almost roasted at 97 degrees in 10 minutes
piping , have to remember that, thanks for the show.
hmm so a - - before and end of a word strikes a line through it, to old to keep up with all these things
I love your Videos! Thanks for it!
Remember the monastery bees? That open air colony was a nasty one!
Will never forget it! Could have titled it “Sistas From Hell” but I don’t believe the nuns would have appreciated that! 😉👍🐝
Video is so cool. Thanks for sharing with us.
Thanks. Keep well!
Always fascinated to view your videos JP 😊👌 I would love to learn more about the art of bee rearing. Always had the idea that bees could harm much with stings but seems they don't really just sting? How can I learn more about it from your big experience? 😊
This reminds me. I always wondered why beehives in cartoons and other media always look like wasp hives. Round shaped with paper walls.
Why did people start to think that's what beehives look like?
That is a long, hard day of work! Nice job.
Thanks JP that's a great catch. You da man!
I feel you man. This heat has been HORRIBLE. We don’t get much of a break even in fall/winter but I’m ready for the little break we do get.
Thanks J.P
Very enjoyable video, thank you.
I love your videos, jp. Never cared much for bees until hearing from bee lovers like yourself on UA-cam, I have a newfound appreciation for them for sure. Still hate hornets and wasps though. Think a lot of people lump them all together and give honey bees a bad reputation for no reason. Keep up the great content my friend, and stay safe.
Nice work JP
Piping was interesting ive read about it but hearing it was 😎
Thanks for this video. I’ve done a few cut outs recently and the one I did two days ago inside wall studs was 7 x 5ft combs with at least 80k bees. It was exhausting trying to extract using regular tools. Took about 10 hrs to complete. Been considering using a vacuum.
18 Bees that would be roughly 26lbs of bees which would be an unusually large amount of bees.
Bee vacs do come in handy on many jobs.
just queen giving speech to their people :)
Where I live, you could basically just put a bucket under it and come back in 20 minutes. They'd be real angry though.
I appreciate the difficulty of trying to save the bees. You work so hard. They, unfortunately, weren't meant for such temperatures and I picture them realizing their mistake the first day of summer.
"Wheres the hi-
Oh it's in the ground now. Hmmm"
Amaizing video @JPthebeeman ! ;)
love you JP the bee whisperer--you be safe stay well and drink lots of water. PS--a glad to say am seeing honey bees here on my farm in Ohio--my memossa trees are full of bees also the wild catnip blooms and clover--but have not seen but one bumblebee, very odd.
Oh I can hear how tired you are. Take care JP.
Oh yes the day you where doing this removal, it was in the upper 90s, with a heat index of 105. I live in Wisconsin!! So I think it had to be a heck of a lot hotter down by you. That kind of heat can suck the life right out of you. Take care JP.
You and yours' take care, Stay Smart, Stay Safe, Stay Healthy
I always hit 'Like' because you don't beg for them as so many others do.
Very educational thank you!
I like the way you are making your videos! :) :) :)
Oh to have a job which is a passion your dedication is fantastic.
I've been afraid of bees all my life until I started watching these videos. Then I was stung 3 days ago right on my thumb and it hurt like hell. I went back to being afraid of them.
🐝 never sting for no reason especially 🍯 🐝 because that is the end of their life . After a honey 🍯 🐝 stings she dies because she is disemboweled when she pulls away leaving her stinger and part of her digestive tract behind . 🐝 are not vicious . If 🐝 where vicious this man would be long dead .
Great video love it
Great work JP. I'd definitely be out for a swim to cool off after a job like that.
Here in Dallas in a full bee suit I admire your touch always.
JP, how did you introduce the second queen to the queen-less hive?
You're best man mate.
Thank you
It's amazing how they make their nest so uniformly
good one brother, stay cool down there now
Love your videos always interesting
JP YESSIR
😂 bee an easy task
Love your video's
This september has been chilly. I live in the north shore and the lows have been in the mid 60's and later this week we could see 60 on the dot maybe even lower if we're lucky.
Thank you so much.
Keep doin what you are doin, and stay hydrated ;) I require your entertainment and knowledge.
Fantastic win win video 🏴🏴🏴❤❤❤
“No trespassing”! I guess the bees didn’t see the sign! 😂
Are open air colonies caused by a swarm not being able to find a new home? Love your channel JP! Love those Bee vitamins.
Hey, JP, IT WAS 103 here today and it will hit 108 on Thursday. Difference is we don’t have the humidity. Those are some laid back bees! Good tip about washing out your vac hose, most of us had to lean it the hard way. You never talk about you hives. What size is your apiary? Do you produce honey for sale, or are you focused on providing bees? By the way, here is a phrase I have yet to hear: “That queen is ug-LEEEEE!” Stu
I am new to the channel so perhaps it's been covered. What happens to the hives after you remove them? Great show. Really enjoy your personality and commentary.
28 Mar 2012: I had a royal visitor at home yesterday :: I found a queen bumblebee bumbling about in my upstairs bedrooms. Likely she had emerged and mated and flown in there in autumn 2020 and found somewhere to hibernate.
They are chillin' like a villain
Thanks. Good V.
I'm a 2nd year beekeeper & your videos prepared our 15 yo son & well ahead of time to be confident in catching a swarm to start a new colony a few days ago. Very cool! Last year I mostly had a beekeeping friend start my first colony & do everything all year until fall then I took over very nervously. Your videos really helped us bee excited & calm about bees!! Hey I'm wondering though why you spend so much time saving a wild colony since honeybees reproduce new colonies so rapidly in beekeeper yards? Is it just a love of all honeybees that won't let you just destroy the stray colonies to save time? It must be expensive to hire people to come get a wild hive. What is the value in saving them even though it takes so much longer?
Another good one JP.
I think outside the box a lot and was wondering with the hive being closed up and dark how does the queen know which cells are empty to lay an egg in. I would think she could not see an egg because it is pitch black inside of the hive. What do you think?
