Just when you thought you had seen it all-This happened
Welcome back and thanks for checking out another video from Yappybeeman.
I happy to share another great day with you as I remove honeybees from a home in Gadsden Alabama.
This colony of bees hadn't been there long. And with the main nectar flow about done, they didn't have much resources to put up in reserve. Although having to be removed from their new home, they were very gentile and tolerant of the process.
Everything went great. I saw the queen multiple times but never had a chance to grab her. After removing all the comb, I expected her to be up in the front corner with her bees protecting her. But in the end, I never saw her again. I assumed I had vacuumed her but I always look around the area to see if I missed her. This proved to be useful because I found her walking around at the bottom of the ladder. As I reached to pick her up,she took flight and I was able to see her fly back up near the hive entrance. As you see in the video, I quickly jumped up the ladder and caught her.
We place queens in holder cages so they don't get injured during transport when available and release them a few days after they have had time to setup in their new home.
I really hope you enjoyed the video and please consider hitting that "liked" button and subscribing for more of my bee removal experiences.
The rehome process consists of collecting the bees into a catch box that does not harm them, removing the comb they use to reproduce bees as well as store food. If the comb can be reused, it is placed in wooden frames and placed in a beehive. If not, they are given resources to rebuild in an apiary ( bee yard) out in the country away from future harm.
I was excited to have been able to catch and show the queen bee in this episode. Queen bees are a bit bigger and longer in body, as well as a little different in color. Without a queen, the hive can not reproduce and will surely die.
