Wow! I never knew that there are honey bees living underground. Thank you for sharing this footage! I also appreciate you being so kind so as to leave a comb for the bees to continue on living and even tried to cover their home again. I wish you can get some of these bees though and propagate it for additional diversity in the beekeeping world..
This is a prime example of sustainability. Thank you for taking only a portion and recovering the hive! These people are truly mindful of not only the bees but that in doing as they did they have secured a permanent food source. Much love and kudos from me to all of you!
Maybe I’m wrong but wouldn’t it be good to build a box and transfer the hive into it? The addition of a queen excluded and a honey super would make the harvest much easier and with less dirt into the honey. By the way this was the only video I found with a ground hive. I’m going to get a ground hive in the next day or so and will try to video it and post it here if I can figure out how to post it. This will be the first ground hive for me and my helper, we are going to try and transfer into a box. I am almost sure these are Africanized bees.
If you seen where they live, they probably don't have the room to keep the bees or at least the neighbors wouldn't allow it! And plus the bees needs to be in the woods where they can collect the nectars. Cuz In the City/town it's harder for the bees to get what they need!
U need to splash with water when u took a some bunch of bees on shovel than it would be easier to get them to shovel and that can't to fly as soon as they stay dry. Not bad. I liked your video! And I am first time visiting a hive of bees in under ground. It was probably amazing. Thanks we need more videos from you about bees. I am looking forward to see from you new videos!
Very interesting video! Could you share with me the general location of where you took this? I didn't see a smoker, and it looked like all you had brought with you was a small pipe shovel and a bucket... The bees are exceptionally passive; I'd love to know where these bees are so I can attempt to find more about them. If you have any information on the bees, I'd be very appreciative if you can share it with me.
This is not bee. This insect is 95%similar to bee but not bee. In Khmer language we call "ព្រួត Pruot" The honey from this Pruot is great medicine for prenency and who is burn by fire.
So I guess they would nest where they wouldn't come into contact with any ant colonies. Because those are the two most advanced type of insects there are, bees and ants. But to think of their nest getting overrun by a colony of ants that's all out on the ground war. And personally I think the ants will win. My own personal opinion.

Lmao was watching this and for some reason I was wondering why I understood what they were saying and then finally realizing they were speaking my language hahah such a failed moment lol
they are hmong they live in Laos i know cause I am hmong myself and my mother told me that in Laos they find these underground and cook them by boiling it.
These guys kill me ! Do it correctly ! Get a hive with frames ready to go ! Put their wax comb in frames, capture the queen, put her in it, then remove the rest of the comb leaving the bees to follow the queen into their new home, leave it set for two days, then at night, close it up, then move it to where you want it... Like this the bees themselves are now in real trouble, fighting for their lives now !
For such a petty harvest, these guys destroyed a bee colony..it would be better if you took them home and place them in your own hive,manage them and harvest honey every season..
