Maybe a video to help us diagnose why a colony suddenly becomes aggressive. Good to know about the “August Effect”. Thanks David!
Just finished with my Formic Pro treatment, and was relieved to see your video that the queen survived your Formic Pro treatment. I would like to a video to see what you do for spring maintenance on a over-winterized hive. Or maybe doing a set of videos with experimenting on going to single deep hives.
I would like to see more about ventilation over winter and wrapping hives. My bees were good until March and 💥 dead within a week and a half 😬 as always thank you for your knowledge 🙏
Mine too, double deeps (one hive died out completely by end of March AFTER starting to make cleansing flights, the other dwindled to nearly nothing in April), and it wasn't for lack of honey stores... here (Eastern Ontario) we're guessing the weather was just so wonky they just didn't spool up soon enough to sustain themselves, also may have had moisture issues as all the dead bees in the bottom were going moldy (and yes we were clearing the entrances all winter). They had kind of a high mite load by the time we got the honey supers off but couldn't find any after treatment...
Great video David. That's a very interesting hive. I would like to see a video on how you store your honey supers from your hives over winter, and wrapping your hives or leave them unwrapped.
Love that hive.
Dave, I have a problem with larva cells busting open between the top and bottom super when doing my inspections. This makes the hive angry and not sure how to stop it. Could you please do a video explaining why this happens?
I am glad to see you back home! I hope all of your travels went well. That is a neat hive!
Great videos! Love to see late season split video. Spotting a queen less hive. And more hive general maintenance . Thanks for beeing our mentor!!!
Love the monthly tips videos! Also looking forward to more mite treatment videos!
my first year beekeeping. learning lots. Thankyou.
Thanks again David ☺️ another great and timely video as I am checking mites tomorrow.
Thanks for the great videos! I'm self taught and have one hive so far. You've answered so many questions for me.
I really liked this follow through of the Formic-pro treatment. I have some on the way. Thanks for all the good tips.
I just enjoy learning what ever it is your teaching
Hey David! Great videos as always, been watching you since I started beekeeping for the first time this year, and you've helped me answer all of my questions! But anyways, I'd love to see you create a video or series on how to care for a queenless hive, like a weekly video to see the progression of the said hive, to see what it naturally does. Thanks for all the great info on honey bees!
Thanks for the fab video! Your perseverance in looking for eggs & larvae is greatly appreciated 😃. You’re such a generous and entertaining resource for new beekeepers like me.
More around mite treatment options and testing is always helpful.
I am getting ready to treat my 2 hives this weekend. It finally cooled down here in Kentucky, so glad you do these videos for us newbies. I love that hive it looks like it would be great in all weather. Thank you for all you do
Thanks David, love your videos. We have been treating the past few weeks and will be testing again to see how are counts look.
Thanks for sharing this with us, I had no idea on the difference in Springtime vs August inspections. Could you give us some more information on winterizing? Southern states vs Northern states.
Great video David. Can't wait to hear about August treatment for mites.
Your videos are so informative. Being new at beekeeping I find the invaluable. Thanks for the great advice!
Interesting hive! Thank you for the opportunity. I would love to see more videos on queen rearing, both grafting and keeping nucs for the purposes of having extra queens around. I wish I had had your advice 11 years ago when I started beekeeping. I was surrounded by very opinionated beekeepers who felt their way was the only way and almost always they contradicted each other. Made for a confusing start but I have gained confidence and am always experimenting and love learning more about my bees every season. Thank you for your encouragement and straight forward advice.
Great video as always. I was curious about fall splits. Advantages, disadvantages and the differences in your approach to fall splits compared to spring splits.Keep the great videos coming. I am always learning something new .Thanks.
Thanks David for this demo; pretty interesting.
More videos on other methods of mite treatments would be great.
New beek this year and boy am I so happy to have found your channel…so much helpful content! I would love to see a video of how you get your bees out of the super before extracting honey frames.
Love this, as I JUST PUT Formic Pro on my hive....very robust.... hoping for similar results after treatment. Thanks for the timely video, David, and for the Queen - Dance celebration! 🙂
Catching Swarms, Beekeeping on a budget, mentoring new beekeepers, differences in queens. Sure appreciate your videos.
Love your videos. They have help me to become a better beekeeper and your coffee time gives me helpful information and thing to think about life. I would like to learn more about ventilation of each season. Thank you for sharing your time and knowledge.
We are new to bee keeping and we love it!! We could really use that beautiful hive that you are giving away. Thank you for ALL OF YOUR TUTORIALS. Thay are greatly used by us.
Great video incorporating formic pro into your IPM. It’d be great to see more treatment options as you prepare for making winter bees.
I love the comparison videos! I'd like to see a video on splits - when to make them, how to determine it's time, positives and negatives of letting the 'new' split raise its own queen, etc. Thanks for everything you do!
Love all your videos. I'm a first year beekeeper and your videos are very awesome and helpful. Thank you! From Festus, MO.
Good video !!!! Thanks for your time. I appreciate it a lot!!!
I live in the mountains of west Virginia. I would love a walk thru of your hives prepared for winter top to bottom. I am addicted to your videos! Keep up the awesome work!
Bee yard placement, pros and cons. Thanks for all the great content.
Thankyou very much for your helpful enthusiasm.
Thank you so much for your videos! I look forward to each new video and am always excited to watch. I bought your class package and I loved it, so much information! I appreciate your encouragement to beekeepers…I need it at times, lol. I’d like to see a video on how deal deal with wasps!! They are so bad in the fall! Love the videos…thanks again!
I love watching your videos, I learn a lot! When I first got bees I was part of your Bee team six.
Thank you for all the information
Hey David
I would love to see a video on what to do about a honey bound hive. Love your videos and have learned so much from you ! Keep them coming!
David,
Always enjoy watching! I love the energy you bring to every video! I would like to see a video on how to recover a hive that has moved into a tree knot/hole.
Thank you for all that you do for the community.
Love the videos finding them very helpful as a first year bee keeper only thing I am worried about at the moment is my hives having enough stores for winter
Great video on formic pro. I would love to see a series of videos of you trying ALL the mite treatments on different hives. You can talk the pro and cons of each etc.
Love you’re videos and your knowledge I would enjoy seeing more about queen rearing or walk away splits thank you
Love your videos. As a new beekeeper you explain everything very well. Would like to see video on options for hive beatle options
❤️🐝Love your Channel! New beekeeper here and I’ve learned the most from your videos! Looking forward to taking all your courses! Thanks for the Formic Pro info! ❤️🐝
Absolutely love your videos, I always learn something. I would love to see more videos on raising your own Queens.
I enjoy watching the inspections when queen cells or missing queens occur and you have to decide on the fly what to do.
I really enjoy your videos. I have had bees for 4 years and learn something in every video
Wonderful information regarding August behavior David. I've noticed my hive is a little more excitable when doing my hive check and assumed it was due to them protecting their honey stores at this time of year. Great to hear I was on point!! Always great information and I really enjoy your videos!! I've heard Anel hives are great! Looking forward to your next video. 👍
Thanks for another great video! I deal with excessive moisture in the hive, especially during our mild winters. I'd love to see a video about dealing with hive humidity and/or mildew when growing a small hive. Thanks for all your help!
Lovely to see inside your hive and finding the queen too. Surprising so many people make videos about bees and don’t show us any bees! Ha ha
I love the videos you do showing if it's worth it or not. I would like to see a video on comparing basic honey extractors and/or equipment used such as strainers, buckets etc. I have learned a lot of your videos.
being a first year beekeeper I have really enjoyed watching your videos. I've not watched them all so if I suggest something you have already covered I apologize. I live in the south and the fall is coming so I'd like to see what I need to do for my hives thru the winter in the south.
That is a really interesting plastic hive. It would be fun to try it. I left a thin piece of insulation under my top covers this summer and I think it has kept the hives cooler. Thanks for showing it, and for giving us a chance to win it. Your videos are always interesting and informative.
I’m getting ready to use formic pro on my hive! Glad to see your results. I would love a video on what to watch for In bee behavior at the hive entrance. Thank you!
Loved the Formic pro follow up, as a new beekeeper this year, I am testing my 2 colonies today. I would love to see tips and tricks on getting my bees ready for winter here in the north east, NY state specifically. Winning this hive would be very helpful as I continue to grow as a new beekeeper. My wife and I watch your videos every week. Your instruction is super helpful, I can’t imaging doing this without you! Thank you for all your videos and everything that you do!
Im a first year bee keeper in Louisiana. I would like to see a video on what to do to your hive after you extract the honey. As far removing supers ,frame care etc. I enjoy your videos Thanks
As a first year beekeeper, and using Formic pro, I appreciate your videos and guidance immensely! Thank you, Dave!
I would really appreciate a video on different scenarios that you've encountered after a hive/colony has swarmed. How to recover. What to watch out for in the months to come/follow. General guidelines for number of frames of brood vs honey/nectar. I'm a new beekeeper (in central NY) and am always watching for any new video you drop. I think our climates are similar. I run 2 deeps going into winter like you do. Thanks for being "you", and for sharing your vast knowledge with us!! 😊
David, we love your videos! We are second year beekeepers and really need information on record keeping. This year, we had issues when harvesting honey. We had a ton of frames full on one side of the frame and brood on the other. I did not use an excluder hoping they would fill the super which keeps the queen out. I guess next year I will use the excluder. Thank you for all you do.
David thank you so much for your videos and your online courses! I’d love more info on observing and seeing if your added deep box is getting utilized right or if you might should remove it.
Hi David I Have learned so much from all your videos and taking your classes.. I think everybody listed some really great choices for new videos. I would also like to see Information on single brood management and i would like to see information information on honey extraction from start to finish. Thank you so much for all you do you. And that Is a unique looking hive. I really like that it has the closures to snap the pieces together.
Hi David! Great video's, you've done so much to help me as a beekeeper. I work bees with my son age 14 and I kid you not he becomes my fascinated each time we open a hive . I guess I would like to see a good getting youth into bees video. Thank you again for all the help and building our confidence with bee's.
Your videos have been an amazing help to me. Thanks
I’m so new to bee keeping that I don’t have a hive yet. Getting my knowledge base now. I have ordered a package for April delivery. Plan on getting my hive next month. Love the look of the one being given away.
Thanks for showing us a new option in hive design. It looks sweet! I would like to see you do a video on more new cool bee products.
Thanks for another great video.
I wouldn’t mind seeing a discussion of an annual beekeeping calendar. It would obviously have to be adjusted for your actual location, but items like: best times to mite treat, watch for swarming, expected nectar flow, when to add supers, etc. Meant to be “big picture” skeleton that would then be modified by the individual beekeeper.
What a beautiful hive. We have been following you for about 3 years and took some of your classes.
I'd love to see more videos on overwintering and types of quilt boxes. I really enjoy your monthly tips.
Ps this is our first year using formic pro.
Thanks for the videos, more info on mite treatments!
I am a newby beekeeper and really enjoy your videos. I have not had time to checkout to see all of your videos, but need to know more about gathering propolis. I am a nurse practitioner and there is very good research on the benefits if propolis use in humans. Thanks so much for doing these UA-cam videos for people like me who are mostly just interested in saving the bees in a hostile environment.
Love your content. I would love to learn more about queen rearing.
I would like to see more monthly tips. Thank you for all of the great content!
Wow Dave, great talk on reason for treating for mites. I love that Anel Hive. Hope this second year beekeeper scores it. Nethertheless, I could see a video on the chemical treatment of aviary for SHB being a benefit. Love the new website and still chuckling over the "bullet-proof vest" comment. Thanks for the videos . Been a game changer for me.
Being new to beekeeping,, well im learning now to start in the spring with my first hive. I would like to u derstand better the cells and understanding the different types. Larva, bee breaks, capped types, etc. Thanks love the page and all your videos.
Thanks David I really enjoyed your videos. I live in central Wisconsin. I would like to see more on dearth and when to start feeding. Knowing that there is a pollen flow coming. This is my first year of bees. Thank you for your time.
I love your channel, and excellent advice. The thing that I am most curious about is, what are the temperature differences between the brood chamber, and the super chamber, on average, if you know, and why is this so important? I’ve installed a temperature and hygrometer monitoring device inside my Lyson hive, and I keep track of the bees with Bluetooth monitoring on my phone, in part to alert me of a sudden change, if anything abnormal arises. Thank you again for your wonderful knowledge base, which is invaluable to all new beekeepers and experienced, alike. You are my favorite beekeeping channel on UA-cam.
Hi David - greatly appreciate your efforts in creating high quality instructional bee content. As a new beekeeper I've learned almost everything from your videos. I'd be curious to see a future video on results you see using Apivar strips. Thx again!
I would like to see a video on a Demaree split in the spring. Enjoy your videos.
Hey David, thanks for another great video!! Looking forward to the next one.
I’m a first year keeper in Arkansas. Thanks for the videos have been helpful especially the monthly checklist.
Keep up the good work, i love to watch your videos. I have learned a lot over the years...
I like the idea of trimming down the hook. I will try that on a tool and see if I like it
Thanks for all you do and I would like to see more on how you harvest the honey
Awesome hive. Love watching your videos as a new beekeeper. I'd like to see more videos on wax moths.
Hi David. Just put in my Formic Pro on my hives yesterday as the weather in Pa is suppose to be below 90 for the next ten days so your video was spot on relevant for me. I would like a video over the winter re splitting hives in April. Two of my four hives swarmed this year and really depleted my honey out put. Thanks for your information on bees. My 5th year with bees and always learn something.
I love your videos! It would be helpful to see a video on the best kind of bee suit and how to get the correct size. I am having a terrible time finding one that fits me!
We appreciate the sharing inspection re: FormicPro. Also like to say thank for your recent participation at the North Carolina Beekeepers Association Summer conference in Hickory, NC! We enjoyed your workshops! I’d like to gain further education about the late summer swarm that occasionally occurs. There are so many thoughts about how to deal with the usually small swarm; do you keep it and try to get it winter ready, leave it be and it will flee, watch for Queen strength and/or lack of being strong. This scenario just happened to us here in Hickory, NC. The Queen appeared to be maybe an old Queen as she never did anything to propagate the colony. A video about this kind of event would be beneficial to all. Thanks again David!
Thanks David. Your statements about bee aggression in the late Summer vs Spring was great. Helped me make sense of why my bees aren’t nearly as “sweet” as they were back when I installed them in March. I’d like to see more videos of the changes beekeepers should anticipate as the beekeeping season changes.
Great to hear!
Hey David, enjoying all your videos especially the monthly tips. I would like to see a series where you make a split utilizing only queen cells and follow-ups on the hive through laying and honey production.
I don’t think I can watch enough videos on finding the queen… very helpful. I’d like to see another discussion about finding queens in DOUBLE brood chambers.
ThHANKS!
Helped my parents with inspecting and repairing their oldest hive 2 weeks ago in Missouri and will be considering drawing off a little of the extra honey on my oldest hive next week in Indiana. They had beautiful drawn out brood frames & 30 pints of excess honey between their different colonies. That's 30 pints, while being very careful to only take a small portion of extra honey away from the girls before fall! I'm hoping to see similar excess stores in mine. Exciting to see 3 state's bee keepers in a row all doing well.
Thanks David! My brother has 3 hives. It's his first year. He got me hooked on watching your videos. I love learning about the bees. If I won that hive I would give it to him He just went to a bee conference in NC.
The Anel hive looks very tempting! I enjoyed hearing about how winter bees are different than their warm-weather hive mates. Can you make a video explaining a bit more about the differences between types of bees and how they help the hive? Thanks for all of your help - you prevented me from having a heart attack waiting to be queenright again.
Often heard FP causes queen/brood issues. Pretty cool seeing your results. Your videos have helped many times. Things are a little different here in hot SC but fundamentally need the same things
Awesome giveaway, someone is gonna be super happy with that hive! David id like to see you make a video on the best way to store drawn comb. More so drawn honey supers between the spring and fall flows. Thanks man! Great video as always
I love your videos. I have the autographed copy of your Book. Id love to see more videos on raising your own queens. Thanks for all you do to help me be a better bee keeper!
Thanks for all your great and informative videos. First year beekeeper and would like to see how you use propolis and burr comb! Cheers!
Great video David. I'd love to see a side by side comparison of a chemically treated hive and a natural hive over the course of a year.
David great video! That yellow hive looks really interesting and it would be interesting to see it with a colony and how they progress through the year. What I would like to see a video on is Hop Guard 3 and if you can use it to control mites during the hot part of the year when formic is just not recommended.
Love your videos! Like to see how to handle intense heat waves and how to help the bees stay cool.
