Saving bees after someone else attempted to remove them first.

www.studiobeeproductions.com I have to admit, I was a bit apprehensive to take this job because of the fact that someone else had started it and quit before finishing the removal completely, but the idea of a colony of bees being left vulnerable and exposed did not sit well with me, so I agreed to remove the bees. This was after the fact the homeowner had agreed to set up scaffolding in order for me to work safely.
Even though the scaffolding was set up which did make the job safer, the removal itself still was a difficult one due to the size of the colony, where they had built all the comb, and that there were a lot of bees. Thankfully, after about 4 hours, all the comb and bees were removed. The only unfortunate fact was I did not find the queen.....that day. Now, I don't want to give away the surprise ending of the video, so you will just have to watch for yourself to see what happens.
I did mention I'd give an update so here it is. The hive really rebounded after the removal, and because the removal was done very early in the spring, I was able to get a split from it and managed to pull 10 frames of honey from the split as well. Man I love wrangling when it pays off like that.
Alright, that's enough talk, it's time to watch and see what happens at the end. God's peace to all.
Mr. Ed

@JeffHorchoff
@JeffHorchoff 6 лет назад
A removal is very stressful for bees. By giving the bees their own comb, it greatly reduces the stress level, and helps accelerate the recovery process. Yes, in my opinion, it is very important to give the bees as much of their dry comb as possible, and this is why I take great care in framing up the comb. To see it all piled up IS very sad. Thanks for watching. God's peace. Mr. Ed
@happylittleunicorn9272
@happylittleunicorn9272 6 лет назад

I feel it is very important to give the bees as much of their comb back as possible. They work very hard to produce it, and I do not want to add to the stress they have already undergone by the removal by making them produce more comb. Thanks for watching. God's peace. Mr. Ed

I have a dumb question. How can you tell the difference between a queen bee and the other bees.?
@JeffHorchoff
@JeffHorchoff 6 лет назад
Putting on that "Life Alert" is like wearing a life jacket when you are on a boat. I was very happy how this whole removal ended up also. Not only that, I split the hive a few weeks later, and I pulled over 4 gallons of honey from the split 3 weeks ago. These are some great bees. Thanks for watching. God's peace Marty. Mr. Ed
@JeffHorchoff
@JeffHorchoff 6 лет назад
No dumb question, there are a few easy ways of spotting her if you know what to look for. 1. Her abdomen is about 1/2 and inch longer than other bees, consequently making her larger. 2. Her wings do not cover her abdomen but reach only about 1/ 2 the length of her body. Other bees, the wings cover their bodies. 3. There is a big black dot on the back of her head, and finally, 4. She's the one wearing the crown, but you have to look really hard because it's very small.

@tashkiira7838
@tashkiira7838 4 года назад
@@rosamariamendoza1466 Since no one else has answered your question.. a Life Alert is an emergency call device, in case someone has a medical emergency and needs competent help. Jeff didn't say, but in his case, I think it's meant to signal he's been hurt, so someone can call 911, though some similar devices are monitored and when a distress call goes out, local emergency services are dispatched. Some but not all models have voice communication as well.

There is NO WAY the first people were beekeepers. They might have some hives....but they OBVIOUSLY don't care about keeping bees healthy....A Beekeeper diligently work to keep their bees healthy.......piling comb into a box shows that there was absolutely no consideration for the health of the hive. I am so glad you were willing to come in and clean up that mess and help the hive to thrive.

I can remember the first cut out I did, it was not pretty, and the bees absconded. There is always a learning curve when we venture into new areas, and it is with great hope that we learn from our mistakes and not repeat them. The real tragedy in the learning curve is that the bees are the ones who suffer most for our ignorance. In order to avoid such circumstances, we must be willing to seek advice and guidance from others who know more about the subject. Thanks for watching. God's peace. Mr. Ed

Boy, there is a huge difference between people who know what they're doing and people who don't. We had bees in the common walls of our complex and the first guys knocked two big jagged holes in my wall and then shrugged and called it a "nightmare scenario" and had no suggestions other than "big deal, maybe you should leave 'em be." I insisted on getting some good people and they came out. Took a long time to figure out where they were, but they were behind my neighbor's closet! Now the bees are living in a community garden, and the homeowner's association is probably mad about how much it cost, but I personally paid for half. I am for saving bees and taking care of them. Thanks for caring about them so much!

Mr. Jeff, Sometimes I feel envious of all the many wild colonies in your area!!!! BUT I cannot imagine such a strange twisted mass of honeycombs to try to remove and put into a hive box....I am glad I wasn't on a scaffold like you and working above my head. My hat is off to you! I wonder if 628 Dirt Rooster was standing by in case you needed to sound your life alert? lessing to you dear Brother! Rick in Pa.

I am always amazed at how and where bees build their hives. When I look upon the beauty of a hive with all it's intricacies, I lose myself in the wonder of it, and see the hand of God. It is with that respect that I disassemble the hive and remove the bees. For me, it's just another way of praying. Thanks for watching. God's peace brother. Mr. Ed

Hi, some of us are getting into bees. We are good people and sometimes get in over our head. It takes experience to do what you do. We love to learn and learn by trying, but it takes experience and that comes by trying and sometimes failing. I hope the first guy talked to the customer with the truth. Sometimes it is hard to admit we are in over our heads. We move on and try another removal. Thanks for the encouragement.

I am all in favor of folks who have never removed bees to dive on in, that's exactly what I did. I made lots of mistakes initially, and I'm still learning even after doing more than 100 of them. There's always a learning curve in trying something new, as long as we remain open to learning, things will eventually level off and begin to work. I wish you well in your bee rescue endeavors. Thanks for watching. God's peace. Mr. Ed

@JeffHorchoff
@JeffHorchoff 6 лет назад
Keeping the removal site as honey free as possible is always a priority for me. The less honey spills, the less likelihood of starting a robbing frenzy. Still, it is almost inevitable there will be honey spilled, but to minimize it is my goal. This was a large removal, but I have done a few much bigger. At least these girls were removed at the right time of the year, and they have done exceptionally well. Not only did I split them early on, but I harvested over 4 gallons of honey from them as well. This is one super queen. Thanks for watching. God's peace. Mr. Ed

Our first removal we told the guy it was outside our skills. He said "I'll do whatever it takes" and starts tearing up the wall. Then after a couple of hours he lost his nerve and said to stop. Needless to say it was an absolute failure. Now he has a torn up wall AND bees. And now we lost a day working in 95º weather and didn't accomplish anything.

Mr. Ed. I enjoy your videos and enthusiasm. A suggestion, if I may. If possible when making a still shot from your video, finding a sharp image of the queen and not one that contains fuzzy, digital artifacts or graininessthat would distort your queen "money shots". Then, move that money shot to a just off of center in the screen with perhaps an enlargement of double the original size. If you don't want to worry about losing the original video for this, cutting down to the specific money shot for a short clip then adding it as a new track over the original video. Them you could zoom in and crop the new clip to show off the queen for a few seconds and then cut back to the original video.
@JeffHorchoff
@JeffHorchoff 6 лет назад
Wow, if only I could do what you suggest, it really is a great idea, and I love it. My problem, I'm old and inept when it comes to fancy editing. I'm sure if I had some special tutoring, about 3 days worth, I could make an attempt at your suggestion. I will say in my defense, I did a VERY modified version of your suggestion in the video I edited Sunday. I took the frame, a queen being released on a frame, froze it, chopped it, enlarged it, and then reinserted it on the timeline. I'm afraid I was at my technical limit of creativity. Thank you for your suggestion and for watching. God's peace. Mr. Ed

It was sad to see that the first person just put the combs willy-nilly into a box. He should learn more about bee wrangling before going after a hive...it’s vitally important to my way of thinking for a person to know how to do their job properly, for their own safety, and the safety of the bees... I’ve seen how you put the comb you cut away by rubber banding them into a frame, and then putting the frame into the box...didn’t this joker even watch a few RU-vid videos before making a mess and botching the job? Poor bee! I pray that the first guy studies up on bees before ever attempting to remove another hive! You are awesome, Mr. Ed! May God continue to bless your labors of love and respect for these miracles that God created! Thank you, brother-hallelujah!

As I look back on the many mistakes I have made over my years of wrangling, it is easy for me to understand how something like this happened. I do not feel it is my place to pass judgement on someone else's work, but rather I should judge the work that I do. That I have control over and can do something about it. Still, it is very sad to see that the lowly bee is the one who carries the weight of our mistakes, but even this, God will bring good from. It's great to hear from you Carolyn. God's peace always.

Jeff Horchoff I am of a contrite heart, Mr. Ed...I was too harsh on the person who had started the job...I do sincerely apologize, and pray that not only he, but all of us have learned from this hasty judgement I made; I both apologize and ask for forgiveness, that my transgression be forgiven. You are right in that God makes all situations work together for our ultimate good. One of my favorites is Genesis chapter 50, where Joseph forgives his brothers for selling him into slavery, and tells them that God turned their evil plans and actions into blessings for all-the Bible says it better than I ever could! Genesis 50:19-21 19 But Joseph said to them, “Do not fear, for am I in the place of God? 20 As for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good, to bring it about that many people should be kept alive, as they are today. 21 So do not fear; I will provide for you and your little ones.” Thus he comforted them and spoke kindly to them. Thank you for being such a peacemaker, a gentle child of God, and teaching me so much, brother! Ain’t gratitude grand? It creates rejoicing in learning, and heals an angry and sullen heart! Psalm 139:23-24 23 Search me, O God, and know my heart! Try me and know my thoughts! 24 And see if there be any grievous way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting!

It allows me to remove the bees from the comb, unharmed, so that I can remove the comb and place it in frames. Later, the bees are released from the bee vac and rejoined with their queen and comb. 3.The abbey is called St. Joseph Abbey and Seminary College. It is located in St. Benedict, Louisiana, about 50 miles north of New Orleans. It is home to 34 monks who's life purpose is to serve God and all His creation.
