- This Might Not End Well .......is not an understatement ! Everything about this swarm catch is going against me. Late in the day call, I can't get them the next day, temps are dropping and its going to freeze tonight. I could have but didn't bring the Colorado Bee Vac which was a big mistake. And cold bees don't move!
Here we are at it again and I'm excited to share another episode of my bee adventures with all of you. the bees however, not so much. They were not on board with being famous and I can't blame them. Bad timing on their part but it's my job to save them.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I did and remember, I am a trained professional.....wink wink. Don't try this at home. or anywhere else for that matter.
Honeybees can always be dangerous and it is not recommended to attempt to remove them with experience with bees or construction knowledge.
I hope you enjoy this little bit of fun. I enjoy your feedback in the comments and thank you for taking the time to check out my channel. Until the next time, enjoy the show.
Yappy Beeman is a professional bee remover performing live honey bee removals in Alabama as "Alabama Bee Rescue" and relocates them to apiaries away from residential areas so they can rebuild and thrive as a honey bee colony producing honey. Yappy is an Alabama Beekeepers association member that has performed over 1000 live bee removals. Yappy with the help of his great friends Jpthebeeman, 628 Dirtrooster bees, Jeff Horchoff and many others, I have learned many skills to remove bee swarms and honey bee colonies safely for the bees and home owners alike.

Here is a little bee educational material for ya. - Jak na to + styl
always glad to get a notification youre to the rescue of a swarm, as well as very happy to see you on Hives for heros.
Thank you for the support and it’s an Honor to work with Hives for Hereos. Great cause and it fits right into my life. I’m a career fireman so I understand the first responder side of the organization.
@@YappyBeeman hopefully ill be down south somewhere soon to start my pollination habitat and get some hives going.
You must be extremely good at Where's Waldo after all this practice queen spotting
Champion 3 years running. Just say’n
😂😂😂
Where’s Waldo (Waldo kills you edition creepy pasta)
@@YappyBeeman hey Yappy I think you had her inside your palm around 9:13. long abdomen, dark tip got me confused
A twofer, now that's some bee wrangling for sure! God's peace brother.
If we are counting swarms it was 2. If not…..there was only 1 queen. But I’m calling it 2
My favorite thing is you swinging the bees down from a branch and then saying "ooh yeah they're pissed" :'D love this!
Ya the cold was not a good thing for them or me.
I love how wholesome these videos are. If I ever just want to sit down and relax, I can just watch bee removals and watch them go into their homes. Well done as always, Yappy.
Wild how sometimes they are docile as doves, and then other times, not so much.
Knowing when to expect the not so much is the key.
Tickle, tickle, ladies . . . Hahahahahahaha!
Yappy, by looking at your Guardian jacket and gloves I would say that’s the very first time for you wearing that set. Those were white as snow! Terry at Guardian is a great guy!
2nd time wearing it. First time was trying it on
Lol
So many bees
So little time🤙🏻😎
Absolutely well done!! =D
I love your dedication to relocating honey bees. As someone who recently learned about them and how valuable they are. I am glad there are people like you who save these creatures.
This will put them in a different mindset....it certainly did lol.
Great job Yappy! That was a lot of bees. Good to see your post :). Thanks for sharing and letting us tag along !!
Thank you Yappy and thank you ladies 🐝🐝🐝 love these bee videos.
Great! Those customers werent scared either, they looked like they were enjoying the show!
They were more amazed to have the guy they started watching a week ago show up to get their bees. I loved it.
9:06 that hand looks like a class 5 weapon
"You wanna fight bro? Get your fists up!"
"Okay."
O.O
Must be hard holding phone and digging into a pile of bees and finding the queen.
Get em Yappy 👍🐝
I hate cold weather bees about as much as I hate hot weather bees in Nola….. but I would never turn them down either.
@@YappyBeeman I knew they were going to light you up the second I saw them all tightly clustered up. 😉
@@YappyBeeman hot weather bees in NOLA?? tell us more! i can imagine they aint no joke. i used to live in new orleans. hot weather made us all crazy!
More fun in the southland and we're getting ready for snow, a 'plowable event' the forecasters say, 3-6" possible. Thanks for posting and providing another bee-fix for the northland, peace, Brice
Stay warm. But enjoy it. I miss the snow falls in Alabama.
@@YappyBeeman I was in Louisiana in 1968 and an inch and a half shut the airbase school down for 2 days. My dad was stationed there for 2 years and being from the NH snow was not new for me. It can be quite beautiful and if you are a skier like myself it can be hard to get enough.
Im going to be honest brother, I didn't even know you had a bee suit lol. You’re such a boss at man-handling these critters that I think they know you…….you’ve got some rep in the bee comunity.
That was the first time I ever used that particular one. I love it. Don't really use one much but I was VERY glad to have my Guardian bee suit that day. Them gurls were not happy with me.
Wow you actually put on a suite, first time I have seen that!
They didnt give me much choice. Temps were cold and the bees didn't want to be messed with. Neither did I.
Nice to see you back,😊
Hopefully the cold weather is gone for the season. I need some stings.
Always great to catch up with you.
You know it's *serious* bee-sness when the suit comes out.
Dang skippy......someone forgot to tell them Yappy was coming for them. Bee nice!
Thank you for sharing it bring back wonderful memories of my late father.
I love it when you talk to the bees Yappy, you sound so relaxed like you forgot about the youtube audience n its just you n the bees chilllinnnn
It’s easy when they act nice. They are hypnotic to me. Just puts me in a happy place.
I love watching 🐝 I plant flowers just for them. My Dad had bees his entire life so we always have fresh honey and he would go rob them whenever someone called. Very cool wrapped around the fence like that, you did an excellent job to 👍💗
So glad to see you posting your fun bee catches again.
🤣🤣🤣🤣Looking at your thumbnail and reading the title looks like a horror movie getting ready to happen.
To some.....it is. Lol
Them’s some spicy sky raisins! 🐝🐝🐝🐝
Härlig start på året
The fence has eyes,lol.
Love watching people that are experts with wild animals work. Its a skill that can’t really be taught only learned through first hand experience and a love for what they do.
I have a good friend who is a trapper who I have worked for a few times when he needed an extra hand. Its always interesting hearing all the techniques he has developed and all the little details he has picked up on over the years.
"Another great day of saving the bees"
-Erika
so did you combine them ? or add a 2nd queen/hive
He is so calm even getting stung, he is a man
Glad to see you !! 😅 🐝🐝
I love 🐝 bee's! "Tickle-tickle" really Yappy, LOL 😅
Heck ya. It worked.
good catch ! I would love to catch a swarm one day
Great video. Happy Weekend to you and yours
Thank you! You too!
@@YappyBeeman Thank you
I absolutely love watching you and your Bee’s! As we all know,Bee’s are very precious…you make ,making a difference,fun!
The thumbnail looks like an owl. The bees are the wings and the eyes are in the wood
Love watching some bee getting!
I have really enjoyed my hive butler with swarm vent lid and the bees to lid if their queen is in the box
I'm in Southern Illinois and my bees are still wearing Coats.
Swarm season also started about 2 weeks later
Yappy, I'm not trying to be rude, but is your right hand (on screen... it might be left in real life) like that from being stung so much or was it always that way? I hope you don't take offense to my question. I really appreciate all your videos. I'm a 100% disabled veteran of the USAF and USArmy and I really want to get into beekeeping. My wife wants me to buy a Nuke or established hike, but I was really hoping to catch my own swarm. What advice would you give me for my first hive? I've built a top-bar hive that I was thinking would be easier to use as my first hive, but now I'm not so sure. Thanks in advance for any advice you are willing to give and Shalom Aleichem!
Glad you asked, its an issue from birth. Had a few surgeries because of it. Stings had nothing to do with it. Can't play the piano so well but I can catch a queen bee faster than most can snap thier fingers. Lol.
Nice! I like that camera gear you are using, too.
thanks for sharing
Love how you know when you should protect yourself withe the bee suit.. Awesome Video
Way to go.I caught my 5th swarm of the year. All from my yard. 😂
Makes splitting so much easier that way… wink wink
I saw some swarms when I was a lad and it seemed that they would just go away on their own.
Most do, situations like this are just a resting spot for them as theybtravel to a new location to build a hive in.
Awesome video Yappy! That’s a really nice bee suit, it looks like it would be a lot more comfortable than the old type!
It is! I really like it. For emergency purposes only on my account though.
awesome you did hank hills house. love your channel
LOL! 😂 @3:11 He is hoping they make it from Point A to Point Bee. I see what he did there. 😂🤣😂
Finally.....someone gets it..... lol
Keep it up this is the only bee channel I’ll watch I love it
I just realized that if the bees can't sting through the suit, they can't lose their stingers, so the bee suit saves worker bees' lives.
Unfortunately, they can't sting me through the suit but they will lose the stinger if it gets caught in the fabric.
😱 YIKES! That was incredible to watch, thanks
Glad you enjoyed it!
That's so cool you called it put exactly how it played out
Was there a queen in both or did you unite them into 1 hive?
I actually just put them in one box when I got home with a double deep setup. It was too much room but if there was 2 queens I believe they would have separated into the 2 clusters again even though they were boxed. I only found the one Queen and they were all clustered together the next day. I think the swarm was too big for the small bush was why there were 2 separate bundles
Very informative. What happened to the other swarm in the box?
Ever consider a beevac operation? That white object in front of the beehive. What is it and it's use?
Thanks Cobus🐳
Nice video, I won’t do that without gloves or half suit… there is always a few stings in the gloves when I am done no matter how gentle.
That is so cool, I would be tempted set them up in a box and keep them.
Swarms in the winter? I had a hive leave in October. I hope they ended up somewhere nice.
I knew a guy named Forrest who lived in Greenbow, Alabama.
I know that guy too…. Weird
Nice job Yappy!!!!
"Hello Fresh!" might just be my new favorite expletive replacement!
Lol.
2 swarms, very cool!
Why are you not wearing gloves so you don't feel the sting! 😻 Love the suit 😂
Great job once again :)))
Great job, love your videos.
Thank you!
Yappyfied with extra apparel. BLESSINGS!
What is needed is a lithium battery rechargeable low wattage heater that is the size of a frame. Just turn it on and install it in the box. Boy they might think it was great and might encourage them to head straight for the warm box! We have some livestock heaters that get just a bit warmer than ambient. So if it is say 50°F outside, they'd get 70°. To the human touch, it doesn't feel really warm but it makes a world of difference!
I just started watching your channel yesterday sadly I realized no matter how much I want to be a bee keeper I am unable to do it due to my illness it's called myotonic dystrophy but I will keep watching your channel
Do the second best thing: buy merchandise from beekeepers.
Let you guys walk right in beautiful touch 😅
Love that foto in the beginning
We spray the box we put the bees in and the swarm with sugar water before trying to move them. This help them keep them calm
JUST real nice people and so so refreshing.
Do they usually sting? Or usually calm?
Also when they sting do they die? Love what you do!
Bees are normally chill, wasps are dicks. Bees die when they sting because it typically rips the stinger out of the body. Wasps don't have this issue and will continue to sting.
Yappy, Can you tell me about the Deep Hive box entrance you are using on the PURA hive? Looks like a plastic screw on entrance with sliding doors that allow you to close the entrance off or reduce it. Also a plastic landing pad. Can you discuss the pros and cons and why you wanted to use this set up and where we can find them? thanks. I went to PURA (Premier Bee Products, LLC but did not see those entrances. Thanks.
It is an apimay bottom board.
That’s cool, two groups. It looks pretty cold out for bees this time.
Definitely cold for the bees but we made it through. It’s 75 today
From what I’ve learned from you sir. Is always be aware of your surroundings. Not talking about the CZcams vids either.
Now thats a nice pile of bees .
Great video Yappy👍🏼
Glad you enjoyed it
Excellent
This is the first time I’ve seen you in a bee suit, much less getting stung
I know. But this one required it with the temps being low. They weren’t going to move on their own and helping just pisses them off. But glad I had the suit for sure.
Happy you always got me laughing with your vids
"ooh, yeah they're pissed!" :D
Could it bee helpfull, it the box you brought, not only smelled attractive, but also was a bit warmer inside?
Missed on how long the hives were undisturbed? They just seem so upset, it's allwsys good to see people that save these beautiful little hellians instead of killing them. I am nervous around any wasp, yellow jacket etc but I have did my yard work around some black wasp?? that had nested in a small decorative bird house, they were so calm around me and also I fed neighbors honey bees TAMPICO juice from a lid, they would fill up then go back to hive
Great job yappy 🐝🐝🐝 save 2 more collonys 👏👏💪🐝
So fascinating, I've never looked at bee's before and thought there such clever little things, and so very cute.
Im in the UK and we have alot of the big yellow and black bumblebees, what do they do different to these bee's cause I've never seen a video of anyone removing one of there nests?
in our home, in PESHAWAR, PAKISTAN, a week back or so in my yard honeybees left the hive,. Perched in a banyan tree with lot of small indigenous bees, before there were quite a few storms, aphids and wasps...just before it was half full of bees...a humming sound was emanating from the hive. This had a lot of dead brood. Was it disease? Can u please guide me whats wrong with this hive?
A clear plexiglass cover clipped/locked over a hive with a hose attachment toward the swarm side of it used to vacuum up the swarm with an attachment for a vacuum hose at the top back of the hive to attach a battery powered vacuum and a baffle/filter to prevent bees from clogging or being sucked into it?
Or just have a Colorado bee vac on had. Less complex.
@@YappyBeeman Yes, I've seen you use one of those, but I was going by what you had on hand in this case or, for that matter, what any bee keeper or wrangler would. Adding a DIY version of what I detailed wouldn't cost $320 like the Colorado Bee Vac.
10 c in normal temperatures.. warm for the time of year :)
great stuff! Yappy!! Did the one in the bushes have a queen also?
I put them in the same box when I got home and only found 1 queen the next day.
Very nice!
Thanks!
i kinda want to see some beekeeping vods
Good job
Very interesting…😮
What happens if you accidentally kill the queen? Can you find another one? Merge them with a different hive?
You cane do either. They will accept a new queen fairly easy or they can be combined with another hive.
