The food is being put on the table and it’s time for the pies first 🎉😂

Happy Thanksgiving 🦃. All

That took me back to 6th grade... "how do you keep a turkey in suspense... ("> ? I'll tell you tomorrow!" :) Thanks for tagging me, and Happy Thanksgiving :)

lol I’m in Canada I love your thanksgiving gives me a great football day

"something happens when we push through"...well said sir! I agree and a good reminder.

I cut way too many trees before I realized this. My partially shaded hives have as many as full sun hives. The only difference is that my full sun hives suffer from heat more than partly or mostly shaded hives.

I started beekeeping in 2020. There is such a lot to learn and any bee keeper must oberve what Randy Oliver does /has done. He is by the way a formidable opponent of the wishfull thinking fraternity! I found his strips are a worthy alternative to fogging with O acid. Why I do not know anly to add that our bees are not infested as of 2024. I bought one colony where I killed 1300 mites at least in the season I bought them. Frederick rightly said that's terrible & it was. The seller of that colony did not seem bothered at all about the fact and was proud that he did not use chemicals on his bees but I think due to my experience it was about time he used something on his infested stock. He said -- 'when you've gone out the gate you are on your own ' ! Regarding the fumigation that I carried out was not that effective at 4 gramms as per Dr Cameron Jack's research. I noted his research said 1 gram was useless 7 4 grams was regarded a lot in some way of thinking Dr Jack said 4 gram was an appropriate amount. I found that mites were numerous afdter the fumigation & that the strips continued to kill better than any fumigation that I then stopped but continued to apply the stips to very good effect. It seems to make no sense at all that the mite drop seemed to increase with the continued stips attack but then slowly drindled to NIL. I thought that the 'extrended release idea' was fabulous looking at the whole problem 'though engineers eyes'. It seems incredible to me and I see from others why the idea was not 'heralded by a fanfare of trumpets' but seems to remain an unimportant 'finding'?

Awesome share! Thank You!

😊😊😊

I don't understand the comment that a five day interval for OAV kills more mites than a three day interval. May be equal and that is doubtful but how is it more???? My understanding is that the foundress mite can re enter a cell about to be capped shortly after exiting previous cell. If that is so and OA from vapor barely lasts a day, a five day interval for OAV will not greatly reduce mites when brooding is occurring. ?????????

Awesome video! Have a blessed day my friend

Excellent! Glad I came across this. Second yr beekeeping n lo n behold...beetles. Third hive I've lost. The first two, no idea why. One all dead bees a week later. Second one, they absconded. 🧐

I enjoyed the content from this video. Thanks for sharing, Greg!

HI guys! Thanks for tagging me in this. I'm so glad he addressed fogging, it's a question I frequently receive and I've never endorsed it. Thank you for this valuable topic coverage. We'll bee seeing all of you soon.

See you all at NAHBee Expo in January 2025. Craig@ SML BEEs / SWVA.

Thank you, Greg. Great information and confirmation.

I enjoyed this interview.

Awesome timing for the release of this video! Great info as always Greg!

Lost majority of my bees to Yellow jackets and neighbor bees salvaging my combs

Is research still showing that OA has no/ little negative effect on the colony?

Thanks for sharing.

Very Helpful talk. Thx guys. Question. When using OAV, can we do this from the top, rather than from the bottom of the hive? Why is it everyone does OAV from the bottom? Wouldn't it be more affective doing it from the top?

Great info Greg. I hope Cameron is at the Expo this year as well.

I like that guy

I swear buy it man it’s like the best shit you can get away with just OA all season I know it works you just got to me on it

Short Answer, Yes🥰it works great used properly, OA is my Primary Tool.👍I like to run 4 day cycle but I'll give 5 a try. Thanks much for this you all😁Great Flashback, I can't wait to see how everything goes this year. Blessed Days...

Great Stream Team Chat Guys! Thanks for the Opportunity To Join Y'alls Live Stream. Enjoyed it Very Much :) Have a great Weekend

THANK YOU STREAM TEAM for giving us an opportunity to be on your live stream!!! It was alot of fun.

The things people do to there wood hives there better off buying a poly

See you guys all have nice winters lol winters to me is -10 -30 for months 😅

I don’t like that good enough my bees are like my pets and I want the best for the bees

lol it depends were you are at wrapping is great for wind breaks

I like the Wisconsin way and Tom I like doubles and I like feeding early too

Got to love them nucs they save yards

Hate tarpaper

It can be -8 and they won’t cluster it takes -10 for them to cluster in a poly hive

I’m all about poly hives they should stop useing wood hives outside altogether in cold weather places I’ll never use a wood box

What about us Canadians😅

Trump 😅you guys are so messed first time a convicted felon is a president of the USA wow you guys got more to worry about then bees all kinds of USA people have applied to come to old cold Canada 😂

Great show tonight, thanks

do the flies go in the smokehouse in the spring and summer and did they ever lay maggots on the hamm?

Tyler should to start his own KZbin channel in a blog style. He has kind of a cool and modest way about him.

Wow don’t you guys block me or restrict me if I do t agree I’ll never watch you again 😅😊

OA is the best I think if you start hitting them mid August 3 grams once a week every week until you get two rounds we’re queens are not laying it’s a pain in the ass doing this takes alote of work but it will keep mites down

Awesome! I hate painting, love me some wax dipped equipment

Love me some sugar & Tom Petty!

Such a great podcast with my brother and friend Mr. Ed. He always puts life and beekeeping in the true perspective!! Bruce nailed it as well!! Jesus is Lord and the honeybee is God’s wonderful creation that He allows us to keep!! I am honored to be able to work and visit with him regularly. Greg does a great job and provides great perspectives as well. Brian and the gang, awesome job!! Looking forward to the booth at the expo and can’t wait to deploy my Endura Hive boxes this spring!!

Great video guys. We love Mr. Eds positivity. We would like to be at NAHBE in 2025 but not sure if we will make it. It will be great to see all of you at BeekMeet at the end of January.
