I Made One HUGE Mistake and Paid For It

Welcome to another bee adventure by Yappy Beeman. In this episode I travel to Eastaboga Alabama to remove a massive beehive from a historic 100+ year old home.
The back story is the tenants are refurbing the home and had found a year prior that a beehive was living between the floors of the home. They colony for some reason didn't make it through the season and they removed the old comb and honey left behind and did repairs inside the home. Unfortunately, they didn't understand how to prevent their return and a new colony moved in where the old had been. Not wanting to harm the bees, they called me for options and the rest is all great video fun.
**** I generally don't make production mistakes but to be transparent I have to admit I made a booboo. In the ending of the video, I showed the wrong nuc box footage and queen. After I returned that evening, I removed the 2 palstic frames in the nuc and looked for the queen. I did find her but did not get any extra footage. Days later, I was videoing some of the colonies in the yard for B roll and somehow got that footage mixed in with this removals footage unmistakenly. Bee removal season can get a bit hectic and I apologize for the mistake. I still hope you all enjoyed the video and I appreciate the viewer who pointed it out. Bee blessed friends.
I hope you enjoyed this episode and look forward to your comments.

Honey Bee Wiki:
A honey bee (also spelled honeybee) is a eusocial flying insect within the genus Apis of the bee clade, all native to mainland Afro-Eurasia.[1][2] After bees spread naturally throughout Africa and Eurasia, humans became responsible for the current cosmopolitan distribution of honey bees, introducing multiple subspecies into South America (early 16th century), North America (early 17th century), and Australia (early 19th century).[1]
Honey bees are known for their construction of perennial colonial nests from wax, the large size of their colonies, and surplus production and storage of honey, distinguishing their hives as a prized foraging target of many animals, including honey badgers, bears and human hunter-gatherers. Only 8 surviving species of honey bee are recognized, with a total of 43 subspecies, though historically 7 to 11 species are recognized. Honey bees represent only a small fraction of the roughly 20,000 known species of bees.
The best known honey bee is the western honey bee, (Apis mellifera), which was domesticated for honey production and crop pollination. The only other domesticated bee is the eastern honey bee (Apis cerana), which occurs in South, Southeast, and East Asia. Only members of the genus Apis are true honey bees,[3] but some other types of bees produce and store honey and have been kept by humans for that purpose, including the stingless bees belonging to the genus Melipona and the Indian stingless or dammar bee Tetragonula iridipennis. Modern humans also use beeswax in making candles, soap, lip balms and various cosmetics, as a lubricant and in mould-making using the lost wax process.
Etymology and name
The genus name Apis is Latin for "bee".[4][5] Although modern dictionaries may refer to Apis as either honey bee or honeybee, entomologist Robert Snodgrass asserts that correct usage requires two words, i.e., honey bee, because it is a kind or type of bee. It is incorrect to run the two words together, as in dragonfly or butterfly.

The day is never crappy when there's a new awesome video from Yappy. Thanks for the fun.

[@indiacoers2611]

Such a gorgeous home! It will all be worth it after it's done!

[@W4iteFlame]

Cool house. Stairwell especially

[@indiacoers2611]

That comb is so beautiful! I would love to take a big bite out of it! 💛

[@YappyBeeman]

It was well worth the sting risk. Glad they were nice enough to share.

[@lewiemcneely9143]

WOW, what a place or rather, a PALACE! And another Yappified hive going home to you! Blessings, Pal!

[@YappyBeeman]

It was a work in progress but will be beautiful when they are done.

Love your videos, can you talk more about the bees and the other stuff 1) What does the smoke do? 2) How come you do not get stung a ton of times with the work you do? 3) Does taking honey kill the hive?

Love the Bell!! But that means you’re getting stung so not cool!😂 You are definitely crazy but very entertaining. Thanks for sharing a great video.

[@joeyl.rowland4153]

If you keep bees and especially if you do removals, stings are part of it

❤❤❤❤❤

[@1RealRoyalPain]

I❤❤ bees and fresh natural honey. I so wish I could keep my own bees, but I’m deathly allergic to the stings 😢

[@dwalker2737]

I know you take special care when finding and "catching" the queen but what happens if the queen doesn't survive the relocation process? Is the colony able to survive and continue on? Would they be able to make a new queen from any existing brood cells?

[@YappyBeeman]

If that happens, they would make a new queen from a young larvae if available. If not I would have to give them one.

[@cappyfann750]

Sweet house.

[@YappyBeeman]

It was beautiful. I hope their remodel goes well. It needed a bunch of work.

[@judytressler7033]

What was the mistake?

[@troyah7361]

Not sure if you noticed but the Nuc at 11:04 had a queen on it, top right! Not sure if you paused before going back to the first frame and she had time to go back over there but just thought I'd say something in case you didn't edit out a few minutes after that! 😉👍

[@jessehutchings]

6:10 That was a completely insane amount of bees and honeycomb. I know this is triggering some kind of phobia for me. Maybe the phobia of old foam sleeping bag pads

[@sandywa3057]

😂🤣

[@emmaholley1811]

Why does the colony’s sometimes kill the queen bee???

[@phylliswestbury5081]

I need to get back to watching my bee guys. Beats politics. Politics just pisses me off. Bee guys calm me down

[@YappyBeeman]

Ain't that the truth. I gave that horse mess back a few years ago and haven't missed it a bit.

Hello love your videos keep up saving the bees . I was wondering do u know where your friend JP the beeman has got to he’s not posted any videos in a good while hope he is ok .

He is great. Hes just taking a long break with other things and says he will be back in. Thanks for asking.

They dnt sting u wen ur holding the honey cone

[@alhambraorchardapiary4882]

Did you ever find the queen from the cutout? Noticed the nuc you went through had purple frame rests, and all wood frames. The nuc you moved the swarm to had yellow frame rest bars and two plastic frames

[@YappyBeeman]

I generally dont leave the black frames in which are mediums because it is a waste of resources to draw them out. I use them to spread the bees out in order to find a queen in situations like this. As far as the queen, I know she was found later that day after I got back home but didnt capture footage of it.

[@alhambraorchardapiary4882]

@YappyBeeman Awesome! Enjoy the videos your a crazy man to let a bee crawl around on your tongue!
