    As I watched today I thought how lucky Château de Purnon is to have you two as it’s caretakers. You both bring great skill sets to that role!

    "WOW" when you showed the bees at work in slow motion, that was incredible. What a tremendous job you are doing keeping the bee tradition alive at Chateau de Purnon. What a great video. Love from N.Y.

    I’ve seen a number of other chateau channels dealing with bees this season, and at first I thought you were a bit late in the season to be dealing with them. Then realised it was a “full journey” episode, which is fantastic. The “story” and the production values in each video you put up are well worth the wait.

    What was the smoker for?

    • @MrTrapper28
      @MrTrapper28 Před rokem +1

      When bees sense danger, they release an alarm pheromone called isopentyl acetate from a gland near their stingers. This chemical wafts through the air and alerts other bees to be ready to attack. Smoking a beehive masks this pheromone, allowing the beekeeper to safely perform a hive inspection.
