@OBAMFSpike Oh I don't think that is a number I am going to call any time soon.

That bee on the camera was pretty hilarious

[@628DirtRooster]

You should do a demonstration on that knife where you cut a leather shoe in half and then slice a tomato for lunch.

[@JPthebeeman]

A clean shoe or worn shoe? 😱

[@bonny2993]

If he's cutting shoes in half ... he needs to figure out how to tie them to his knees and use them as knee pads !!!

[@JPthebeeman]

Shari Smith that’s what gloves are for silly. 😉

[@livelife1250]

Like the infomercial guy 🤣

[@coloringwithd]

LOL JP. Those bees are something else. You know they appreciate you even if they talk smack. I have a pair of knee pads almost like them, but mine have additional foam hot glued in. Thank you for sharing 🌞🌞🌞

[@koraktheape]

Love watching JP whisper bees! JP: "I sing to em"

[@rodneymiddleton9624]

That was the driest comb I've seen in a long time. You did them a favor to get them out of that rat infestation. Thanks for the video!!!!

[@marianhoblyn1901]

I don't know where you came up with the idea of Pj the man-bee, but I love it. Of course I have head phones in so I don't disturb my husband, and he thinks I'm a little crazy when I randomly burst into fits of giggles over a bee video. Lol

[@jstpshply79]

The knee pads reminded me of my brothers back in the late 60s, early 70s strapping on the Sunday funny papers for shin pads to go play hockey! Haven't thought of that in years! Yeah...being poor wasn't so bad ✌❤😎

[@cherylcarnes4207]

Yay JP you rescued the hive. That PJ really should check with the boss bee fore he speaks. Thank you for the video JP. Loved it. Bee well.

[@neutraltral8757]

PJ the Man-Bee sounds like nothing but trouble. He probably didn't follow through with the abscond threats just so he could stick around and intentionally lead a bunch of small hive beetles into JP's other hives! 😮

[@Credit2Reddit]

JP: Sees some bees* JP: So anyway I started vacuuming

[@itsamk18-ish]

😂😂

[@Brimikonizzle]

JP Beforehand: Makes a bee-safe vacuum.

[@tammystoudt5137]

ALWAYS love your videos! PJ had me cracking up 😂 I miss the bee march videos, but smelling the stench of rat and the colder weather...I don't blame you for using the vac. It always mesmerizes me watching them all just walking in like you're hosting a red carpet event for them 😊

[@lwhite530]

So my mom got us this LED light that can wrap around anything. Very flexible, bright and battery operated. Just an idea! Can’t wait for the season to start. A year ago I was in NOLA for my first time and I loved it. The food and the people were amazing. Hopefully I get a chance to go back one day again and explore Louisiana

[@Gigi-14]

Using what you have on hand to get the job done is my idea of genuine ingenuity JP. Knee pads are brilliant in my opinion. 😊

[@christophersibley8946]

JP so nice to see how gentle with the Lt ladies you are a nice Bee keeper all our regards from the UK.

[@somerandomguy3868]

Most of the bee keepers I've seen love and care for the bees, but none as much as you, you really go out of your way for the girls and look out for them as best as you can

[@nickromano3391]

Have you worked with Africanized bees? I'm asking because you seem very relaxed with the bees you work with and don't see much danger. If you do work with them, do you change your approach compared to how you usually approach a bee problem?

[@ScottBub]

No typically only does honey bee removals. It’s very rare that he will work with any other bee.

[@nermalsturf]

honey samples at 1-800-rat-piss that's funny! What's funnier was my dog's look of confusion when the high-pitch "bee voice" was talking...it was quite hilarious!!!

[@elizabethannekeith]

you introduced me to something I am fascinated with. you and the totally awesome 5 of you bee hunters! I plant for bees and am not afraid of them, learning how to beekeeping and their society is so freakin' awesome. so is your drawl, LOL Elizabeth Keith

[@kathrynmacrae1470]

I love your videos so much, I can't help but take time out of my day to watch! More power to you, JP 🌟

[@MichelleMReynolds]

I real like watching your page . I always learn something new. Thank you so much.

[@jofox8066]

Hi JP! I've watched a lot of your videos - they're really great. I really appreciate the way you're so straight forward and calm in your work. I get a sense of peace watching you do this stuff. I'm sure it's hard work and very skilled, but you make it look effortless. All the best, Joanne PS: I love the bee voices and your excellent solution to the knee pad problem - way to think on your feet!

You said to call you out on your kneepads but dude I wouldn't have thought of that! Nice job, I am watching all your content slowly, it's really nice seeing someone do this hard work to save such adorable and hard-working creatures. Keep it up my man! 😃👍

[@Doxymeister]

Poor JP, I think he's got "split personality" and PJ the Man-Bee is his alter-ego! The stress of the job must have gotten to him and he just couldn't take it anymore. Let's all support him while he recovers from this, and brings us these high-quality bee rescue videos! LOL, okay, I'm done being silly--good job giving these girls a new home. G'night!

[@superduty4556]

I run in abject fear if I see a bee and you're there having a grand ol' time.

[@georgiachalinger7586]

It be really cool to see hive updates on the rescues and extractions you did on previous videos

[@junkjake8626]

I like how you say all the tools you are using really helpful. 👍

[@Wulferious]

I'm really liking the follow-ups you have been filming recently. It adds a nice touch of completion to your videos. Still want to see more of your work in the bee yard, though! Have yourself a good one!

[@85sprint]

Wow he volunteered that. That is awesome. I worked under trailers doing ac work. Ive found 3 hives under. And 2 of the owners killed the bees. I even gave them cards of a free removalist. Or cheep not 100%. The other they naturally left for some reason, fast swarm. That's great that he offered all that. Keep doing what your doing. love bees.

[@melissah4515]

Woke up the dogs up the street I laughed so hard! Thanks JP I needed that. You got yourself a new subscriber.

It's great to see how skilled you are. I myself don't have much luck with friendly bees LOL all the bees that have stung me I made them mad at me somehow! LOLOL

There's always one in the crowd. Lol. Loved the commentary from the bees too🎉😂❤️💯🙏🏻

[@amandalee-riley5293]

Thanks for the video, JP. I bet you were glad to get home and have a shower that day, after all that close contact with rat habitat. :)

[@JPthebeeman]

Couldn’t happen fast enough.

[@drjlawrie7934]

Do you have to sacrifice some bees and baby bees, when you have to cut the comb? What do you have the drones?

[@ImJayceeYO]

If you reused the honeycombs wouldn't it still be rat piss honey? Or do they clean it out after a while making it safe to eat?

[@MrsOdie2]

The print the comb sections leave behind reminds me of snake vertebra.

[@Sasquatch6987]

Mr JP: I'm considering starting a few hives in my backyard, but I don't want the bees to swarm into the surrounding barns and buildings. Do you have any suggestions on how to "bee-proof" structures? Thanks!

[@JemJam2976]

I have a new appreciation for bees after a trip to Raging Waters and a bee landed on my soda cup. I watched this bee as it drank soda sitting on the lid of my cup. It was fascinating.

[@slavkei]

Alright I know I said that I wasn't a fan of the bees talking a few vids back but I'll admit it's growing on me. Amazing videos either way!

[@FB-tq5ln]

Another successful removal. It is great to see you save the bees and home them. Greeting FROM Dublin Ireland bless you.

[@c.o.r.7930]

What’s that stuff that you’re spraying on them, and how come they dont attack you once you start removing their comb or hive not sure what you call it.

[@Freelancr38]

It still surprises me every time that the bees don't really try to defend their home when you're removing the comb. How often would you say the bees live in harmony with rats? Another great vid mate, cheers for posting!

[@JPthebeeman]

Rats & bees really do not live in harmony. Rodents usually move into a weak hive only if they can & that’s almost always during winter. I mentioned in the video going into the bee yard & finding dead rats early spring or late winter in front of the hives. Those rats obviously didn’t fair well.

[@kevinsaltz7849]

I would imagine if the rat don't get too greedy he can get away with it but rats tend to be greedy little shits

[@kvandyke252]

The bees that don't hive up or get vacuumed and get left behind. Will they be able to hook up with another hive or just die ?

[@JPthebeeman]

k VanDyke stragglers that miss the boat so to speak could potentially join up with another colony but it needs to be close or they will likely perish. If enough are left behind however, they could go into survival mode, even build comb & try to make a go of it but without a Queen or the resources to make a queen they are eventually doomed.

One of the smartest men on KZbin!!! I love these videos. ♥️❤️♥️

[@lorrieruff4402]

Always fun to watch these. Too bad about the rats. Have come across that issue before with a house I had purchased long ago. It is amazing how long that smell can last, it was a old nest no rats in it any more. But I made sure those things where gone with a exterminator. Just caught a couple of mice. But I used some soapy water, rinse and used some bleach afterwards to insure that it was sanitary. Can bees get any illness from rats and mice? I know people can.

[@JPthebeeman]

Lorrie Ruff I don’t believe bees can catch a disease from rodents.

[@jesseshort8625]

I just found your channel about a week ago and I’ve learned a hell of a lot. People don’t realize how important bees are so keep it up buddy. What do you do with the bees you rescue? Do you keep em?

[@JPthebeeman]

Jesse Short currently I’ve been donating a good many to a good friend of mine where they’re placed on 3,000 acres of swampland.

[@derkhart6019]

Loved the video JP, a couple of questions, how fast can bees make honeycomb, an how long did it take you to spot queens, if you didn't point them out I'd never spot them.

[@JPthebeeman]

Derk Hart bees are capable of building small comb sections (roughly the size of your tongue, unless you’re Gene Simmons) overnight.

[@derkhart6019]

Wow that's amazing, an kiss are great too.

Wow!...I was so nervous watching you. Amazing. Good Job. Wow!

I wish the others I watch would be as gentle as you! Thank you

[@mike7546]

Hi JP could I ask what you do with the bees you save afterwards? Do you keep them all? Or do you sell them to some bee farms or something? If you keep the bees can i ask for a video of what your probably very many beehives look like?

[@JPthebeeman]

I don’t keep them all, goodness no. I used to have many different bee yards but had to cut way back on that, just too busy to keep up with everything. The last few years I have been donating most of the colonies to my good friend Schawee who is in many of my videos. Schawee places the bees on 3,000 acres of swampland in Gonzales, Louisiana. I’m hoping to do a video soon with Schawee & I going through some of the hives at this location.

[@mike7546]

[@isabeldambrosio2193]

What happens to the bees that are left behind? Did they die or do they go off and find a new hive to live in?

[@JPthebeeman]

Unless there’s another colony really close by for them to join the stragglers won’t survive.

[@jeffweber8244]

Is the new hive considered clean of rat piss to be able to harvest honey or must you wait a season?

[@JPthebeeman]

Jeff Weber you wouldn’t want to harvest any honey which I didn’t but any new stuff they make would be fine.

[@bloodyliar]

@JPthebeeman Do you think some people are more likely to be stung than other people - scents given off etc ?

[@JPthebeeman]

Some do tend to get stung more than others. I believe it has to do with their scent & gestures, or rather over gesturing.

[@hummingbird275]

JPthebeeman I have heard that mosquitoes are more attracted to those of us that have O Negative blood, I think THAT is true from experience. I certainly don’t know if it would be the same with 🐝

[@markcatos3098]

I was wondering what do you with all these bees

[@lindacsmith13]

Everybody needs a helping hand even if they are on your knees.

[@Thetis058]

Sorry I have a bunch of questions, however first I just want to say watching you save bees is great . My first question is do bee keepers have any issues with mice getting into the hives ? Why was the comb in this hive so brittle ? Rats can’t control their bladder in part because their urine trail is a scent marking for other rats in the same family or colony to find food source . Since the comb was contaminated with rat pee I hope and pray you don’t get an influx of rats in your bee yard or whoever’s yard this hive goes to until the bees are able to rebuild and get rid of the rat contamination in the hive pieces . Did you wear a mask as rat excrement and urine and the rats themselves carry diseases.

[@dawnth531]

Love the knee pads too lol. Was wondering why you didn't wear gloves with all that rat pee around but then I saw lol

[@GaiasGreenGirls]

I love EVERY video! 2000 eggs ... in ONE DAY?! #0£¥ smokes! “PJ the ManBee” ROTFL! I always wondered if you encountered “Africanized Killer Bees,” and what do you do then? I LOVE learning about Bees! I used to be horrified of them. And while I *AM* allergic to stings, I am curious about visiting apiaries and being “up-front, close, and personl.” I rescued one bee last fall, but I didn’t expect she’d’ve made it. She lost her colony, was driven miles and miles hanging outside the car. So I petted her wee li’l bee-head, covered her from the rain, and wished I had brought her home and fed/kept her the last of her life ((it was pretty cold up here in New England, but she was out on a drizzly New England Autumn ... she got disoriented somehow)). 🐝
