How Did Those Bees Get In There?

As a builder, I like how you use your construction knowledge to locate the hive, well done :)

[@628DirtRooster]

Thanks James. Got a lot of years in the business. May as well use that knowledge for something. :)

[@AMStationEngineer]

That is one well managed [by the bees], nicely productive, and immaculately clean hives that I've ever seen! BTW, I'd owned a Carrier HVAC dealership for nearly twenty years. During the latter portion of the '70s, "popcorn ceilings" were the 'in thing'. Beginning in '81, dealers were notified that 'under no circumstances, are we to install supply or return vents into, onto, or otherwise - to surfaces covered with texturing known as "popcorn", or any other type of sprayed or 'shotgun - pattern deposited surface treatment', due to the fact that a large percentage of the base material contains asbestos fibers, and in some cases, asbestos fibers mixed with Urea Formaldehyde Foam particulate, which was designed to serve as a "sprayable external decorative and insulative coating which also serves to increase R-value by a factor of R2 to R4. Stay safe, because you are one of Mother Nature's most valuable assets...

[@robertasb4911]

You inspired me, im 17yr old beekeeper, i did my first removal 20 days ago, it was a huge be hive on a garage door in my workplace, and the hive was living on the rain, thats why i took them home

[@fakker8349]

awindwaker the last thing they do is sting unless u attack or hurt them

[@jmicaha2655]

awindwaker he explains it in the video, they’re not offensive, just defensive! When you crush a bee it releases pheromones that alert the other bees And kind of send them into attack mode. They also don’t like super loud noise or jerky movements bc it makes them feel like they’re in danger, which prompts stinging. Bees also don’t like their houses getting demolition derbied, so not crushing the comb will get you on their good side too.

One summer I brought home a flowering shrub that attracts bees, butterflies,, humming birds, etc., and I had a swarm of bees come right to me as I was taking it right out of the car. I even planted the shrub with the bees swarming in the shrub. They wasted no time. The bees couldn't have cared less about my presence right beside them. There was a year that I was very concerned for the bees. I saw no bees at all, and when I finally did see some, they were all tiny as if they were babies.
