Honey Bees Take Over Vacant House!

two honey bee colonies removed live from vacant house in Kenner, Louisiana

[@JPthebeeman]

Hope ya'll enjoy this video. A lot of time & effort went into putting this one together & it was of course a ton of fun filming it!

[@thuffman44]

+JPthebeeman Thanks for sharing. I've always enjoyed watching your uploads. This looks like it was a good time with some great friends. Really thankful that you continue to share videos here on your channel. Hope you have a great day sir!

[@JPthebeeman]

Thank you Tim, you have a great day as well & Happy Thanksgiving to ya!

[@patrickgordon7138]

+JPthebeeman Best Video yet. Great editing. Thanks for it!

[@JPthebeeman]

Thanks for your feedback Patrick. I really appreciate it!

[@gadsdenbeeco6918]

I'm still laughing at this little trick the boys played on me. It was well worth it in the end. Very hot few days with JP but the milkshakes were delicious! I can't wait until swarm season next year.

[@ThatWord]

When a man likes his work and is good at it, this is what it looks like. Thanks for making it fun to watch.

[@riicky83]

You know it's refreshing, a few other channels that does bee removals, while they'll do the job and on most occasions show off the caught queen. I like hearing you admiring the job the bees do, just the way you often mention how beautiful their collection of honey looks etc.

[@roycesmith9182]

We got into beekeeping one year ago. With jp and dirt rooster videos we have done four cutouts. Could not have done this without what we learned from jp and dirt rooster .

[@JPthebeeman]

✌️🐝

[@CorpseBride64]

You know I always under estimate how much work something like this is. All the maintenance you were referring to after, to make sure no other bees move back in. It's truly amazing!

[@JPthebeeman]

NaNcy K (Poppy Moonblossom) bee proofing is the most important part of the process other than saving the bees. People want an easy fix as to preventing other colonies from returning but there is no easy fix, nothing you can spray or anything like that will keep them away. Exclusion is the way to go. Maintenance, caulking & sealing, no spray foam, bees chew right threw spray foam.

[@penzame12]

Love it!! Got to see you and got to see Yappy and Schwee as well. Nice! Thanks a bunch!😀

[@anthonymeadows8849]

You and the Yap make for a very entertaining video.

[@YappyBeeman]

I still owe you one from this job.......I haven't forgot! But I am still laughing at it.

[@JPthebeeman]

Yappy Beeman that was just a warm up, plenty more where that came from 😜

[@TopFox-yl9mp]

You remind me of man kind

[@TopFox-yl9mp]

I hope u paid by now

[@jmattingly8403]

this was the most beautiful honeycomb i think i’ve seen you get in all the videos i’ve seen so far, just amazing what they accomplished in this abandoned home !

[@knightlife98]

To this day, I find it quite amazing how vital these small creatures are to life!

[@juancarlosmunoz7177]

I love the way you guys work together. Jappy is becoming a fan favorite. You should make more videos with him.. great team work

[@honeybguys6346]

I'm glad to hear that you advocate that a beekeeper who also has carpentry background is a good choice as a removal specialist. Thanks JP. As a builder of over 20 years and a beekeeper of over 4+ years, my business, HONEY B GUYS is a perfect fit up here. We are in line for a banner year next season for scheduled removals already! Take care my friend.

[@JPthebeeman]

+HONEY B GUYS good to see you & best of luck next season!

[@designpainter3193]

I love how you three are such good friends. I have a couple of friends that I've known since grammar school and we prank each other, all in good fun. Your video reminds me of OUR good times together. They're also very educational and so worth watching.

[@Kreemerz]

I love watching JP's videos. This is why KZbin exists! The humor and the casual spontaneous conversations and bantering make all his videos worth every single second of KZbin space. I did beekeeping when I was middle school for one season in Northern California. Enjoyed it. Hope I can do it again someday.

[@stefanagotici344]

Cei mai puternici vinatori Domnul sa va binecuvinteze

[@MIgardener]

Wow, I would have loved to see what the hives looked like condensed. Those things were HUGE! And talk about a hassle getting them out, wow. That is why I do swarm removal only, less hassle!

[@clivelambert-oe7kg]

I believe the fun of it is doing what jp does I've had to do similar stuff to help my friend it was a good day

[@romennelson9821]

Less hassle less pay

[@colleenbarker-cohn6633]

Beautiful Haul there guys!!!

[@katiecraig3158]

The wall at 22:30 explains exactly how I was looking watching this video 🤣

[@candacethompson2521]

This is what friends are for..lol.. good clean fun.. bravo !!

[@tiliayala7131]

I think I'm addicted to these Honey 🍯 🐝 Bee videos! Man I wanna reach inside the video and grab some of that real honey!

[@drcharliebrown1]

Having Fun and getting the job done. That's what makes this profession the BEST things I have done and seen in my lifetime. Thanks for being an inspiration to me and many other Rescuers and beekeepers.

[@evelyn_r]

😂😂😂 you two are evil!!! 😂😂😂 poor yappie

[@cecoya]

Those girls were very busy storing up honey for the lean months to come. WOW Congrats on finding both queens and getting them out alive. Have a great day

[@lynnethridge459]

Thanks for letting me know about the new video. Yappy was a really good sport about the queen. It was really good video. I never get tired seeing where the bees are going to be uncovered.

[@JPthebeeman]

+Lynn Etheridge Yappy is indeed a good sport & an even better friend as is Schawee. I'm very fortunate to have such good friends. We just have way too much fun together :-) Incidentally, more videos with Yappy & Schawee coming your way!

[@didyouknowjustwalk8915]

I hope you enjoy

[@michaelburn5538]

I served in the Army with a couple of you Cajuns you are real good people.

[@guardiandogoargentinos1385]

Smh

[@kevinharvey8976]

I’m really enjoying your videos. I’ve been wanting to get me some bees for sometime. I traded for a little pop up camper the other day and guess what , it has bees in it. I think I’m going to leave them in there until spring it looks like they are pretty well set up for winter. Thanks for all the knowledge you have shared with so many. Thank you.

[@JPthebeeman]

Kevin Harvey in case you haven’t seen this one, you might wanna check it out. It may prove useful. kzbin.info/www/bejne/a3iQqYWClKyDedE

[@apb38]

These guys must be rollin in honey. Everytime I see one of these videos I have to go and get me a spoon or two of honey.

[@mattysones]

"I like dis place. They got good Pepsis" had me ROLLING

[@herbramsey3375]

I love it when u work with yapping yap

[@JPthebeeman]

Me too, he’s a nut. We have a lot of fun together.

[@MichelleLewis1969]

Hey man, we have those wretched creatures (Palmetto Bugs) in Coastal SC and I loathe those things! Like a B-52 bomber flying through the house! Panic sets in and I'm leaving! LOL! Awesome cleanup there. Too bad for the losses!

[@JPthebeeman]

Yes, can’t stand roaches, they are nasty critters to say the least! 😱😉🐝

[@guardiandogoargentinos1385]

@Michelle Lewis Which part of South Carolina are you from?

[@teresahiggs4896]

Stink bugs are bad here in Northern Alabama . Try to catch them and they stink! And they flying around in the house , ugh!

[@jirotakeuchi1504]

I liked Yappy and how you showed going to the gas station to get his drink! Overall another great video.

[@JPthebeeman]

Yappy is about as good a fellow as they come. He & I just made a camera swap & I got a GoPro Hero 7 black out of the deal, love it! Huge improvement over my 3 black.

[@geekdivaherself]

@@JPthebeeman I actually started down this whole beehive rabbit-hole with one of Yappy's videos, so I'm glad to see he's well-liked! Thanks for all your hard work and remote camaraderie! Ps. 5th-gen Miamian in Seattle since college in the 1990s here, and when you described palmetto bugs I had to remind myself I was in reality and that reality was in Seattle and none of them were trying to fly in my pale as all-get-out face at night! Even the slow march of terms leading to Palmetto bugs was anticipated by me and I _knew_ you were going to say it was a Floridian term! I can't believe I'm actually making it through the rest of this video. _[distant look]_ I have grown...

[@tkmccoywv]

I agree with Yappy - Outback! That was one hell of a job, you guys, and you did a great one. Always a pleasure to watch. JP, the bee whisperer :) Hope you all have a great Thanksgiving.

[@gadsdenbeeco6918]

Dang skippy......a thick steak is always in order after a hard day with JP ! (Yappy) :-)

[@joanlittle3899]

wonder how you do what you do.. I love honey too. a great video every time..Joan

[@colleenmurphy1333]

Alright it’s my #1🐝keeper, Yappy, can’t wait to get better and come to USA 🇺🇸 to do a 🐝 removal with Yappy, 628 dirt rooster, JP & Thank you Jesus Mr Ed🐝 can’t wait 🇨🇦🐝🇨🇦🐝🇨🇦🐝 a whole lot of stinking 🐝🐝🐝’s, go Yappy & JP team work! JP does a lot of ground level removals it seems, must be just lucky because you do heights tooooo! Oh where oh where has the little queen gone? Oh there she is Queen 🐝! Having fun along the way………..🐝🇨🇦

[@628DirtRooster]

I don't know who gets the credit but one of y'all has Xray vision or something cutting the sheet rock right where the queen was. You'll have to teach us that trick.

[@JPthebeeman]

+628DirtRooster no trick really. After the first piece was removed I noticed a bunch of bees on the soundboard below so I opened that lower section up & happened to notice her, that really had Yappy's panties in a bunch then :-)

[@628DirtRooster]

JPthebeeman LOL

[@JPthebeeman]

:-)

[@gadsdenbeeco6918]

+JPthebeeman I found the bees so you could find the queen......I get no respect.

[@JPthebeeman]

Respect is something you have to earn Yappy :-)

[@itsjerae]

JP is the bee man and a vlogger! I love it!

[@bobbiejovaughn6781]

I love re-watching all your videos...

[@Tonnsfabrication]

Sure do miss the vids JP. Lost both of my colonies to foul brood this year. Was one of the saddest days of my life. After investing so much time and getting to know their patterns so well they where definitely my girls. Hard to explain the connection to other people. Owning and caring for bees will change you as a human being, you look at everything in nature differently and become a weatherman to boot. I Have a 5 frame nuc ordered for next spring, I burned everything I previously owned and will start with new everything this round.

[@JPthebeeman]

+Michael Tonn good for you for not giving up & sticking with it! Beekeeping will definitely change your life for the better!

[@markjones6085]

I know this comment is 3 years old but i understand. I had a colony of atta cephelaotes (leaf cutting ants) they were my pride and joy. Sadly lost them due to power cut and my stupidity of putting them in a cold space relying 100% on heat. But live and learn, I really want to learn to keep bee's now.

[@robertkelly3313]

Nice to see chaps enjoying their company, then a good lunch makes great video.

[@dollarg1]

Funny how this video is about bees and the ad is for Dawn dish soap!

[@promaster185]

That was a good haul of some good looking honey comb. Thanks for another great video.

[@LiosWorld1]

This was funny!! Thank for the great content. Im a new subscriber

[@theinsane4469]

Y’all’ve some pretty good commentary for in between the action.

[@wadenya1]

Yappy wanted to save 69 cents... every little helps 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@judysmithluper1935]

You two are cracking me up 😂

[@mattybeekeeper]

Beautiful bit of honey comb perfectly capped. Nice queen nice colony

[@iainmartin9724]

They may as well demolish that house. You’ve done half their work for them. 😉 Great video!

[@JPthebeeman]

Iain Martin, my thoughts were that the house was a good candidate to be torn down. It had some serious foundation issues & a good bit of termite damage. I believe that’s the direction it was heading towards.

[@iainmartin9724]

JPthebeeman We’re moving to New Zealand in a few years and we’re going to keep bees on our 10 acre lot in Otago - your videos have been so helpful, educational, and fun to watch. Thank you so much.

[@Cursiveclub]

yall sound like siblings or maybe y'all been friends for a long time 😂😂😂

[@Nervii_Champion]

I want to keep bees now, that honeycomb looks good

[@The_Tribute_Maker]

First second into video, hears the song used for the CSI - Miami Theme and I smile :)

[@jbpost52]

JP remember the phrase , What goes around comes around? You may have to be looking over your sholder in the weeks to come for Yappy seems to be someone who will surprise you when least expected. Enjoy the episolde. Yappy is a good sport.

[@AhmadAbdi]

it's obvious you love what you do guys and it must be cool to do that with your friends!

[@JPthebeeman]

+Ahmad Abdi yes & yes! Thanks for watching!

[@amalprasad1122]

Hi JP I'm a beginner from India yours vologs are very informative for guys like us

[@geekdivaherself]

It's so cool that this is being watched and appreciated from India! Thanks for letting us know over here in the US! I value Indian culture a lot too.

[@videolabguy]

What a fine bunch of fellas! You should have fun at work. And then go to the Boo Fett!

[@vincentelstone1035]

wow love watching what you are doing

[@theinsane4469]

That termite damage is horrible and as a carpenter, I wouldn’t want t even be 20 feet from that building. What makes it worse is those 2 x 12’s have already been sister’d so you have to replace them to maintain structural support.

[@swirrllfolfsky9803]

That house was essentially a just a massive bee box at that point... That was a massive amount of comb...

[@latoyachamblee5747]

I love this thank you this is my favorite video

[@michellehood3345]

Hilarious duo...you guys sound like an old married couple...lol🐝

[@MariaColon879]

You guys are a mess! I would fit right in with you guys,but I'm afraid of getting stung😊😄😍

[@mbgal7758]

They’re palmetto bugs here in South Carolina too. This is the palmetto state after all and they are our state bird. Also good gravy those bees had enough honey stored to keep them going til rapture.

[@sayjay198080]

Y'all are the Bee Stooges. Lol. Too much fun.

[@brendahere]

that really looked like some amazing honey! thanks for sharing

[@JPthebeeman]

+brendahere was for surely!

[@betronyx]

"BBQ is good, but's not a buffet" Awesome video, I always found a new one!! Best regards! from Mexicali B.C México.

[@michaelmueller8976]

Nice eye for Queenie

[@bobandena]

J.P only one thing to say, your still the BEEEEZ KNEEEZ and Yappy is still the ANT's KNEEEZ. Great stuff, I can see it now, premiering in NY --- J.P & Yappy The Movie.

[@stephanievineyard2249]

I want to own some bees so bad. I can't wait until the day I am able to!

[@romennelson9821]

He didn’t have to trick my guy yappy like that

[@JPthebeeman]

Oh yes we did!!! 🤣

[@shesa1rose]

I’d like to see how you remove all the hunny. Please make a video showing the process doing that.

[@candidethirtythree4324]

Wow at the cicadas

[@davidharris6581]

Good job as always JP.

[@transmitterguy478]

Bee comedian's I have seen it all now. LOL,

[@comper100]

Haha what a crack up, great video guys...

[@JPthebeeman]

+Luke Parker thanks for taking the time to watch the video Luke, appreciate it!

[@crabtastic7]

Holy crap thats a nice score of honey

[@mattchilders3123]

You two work well together. Hehe.

[@MarkRenkert]

.....fun to watch good sportsmanship and professional bee wrangling.....

[@glennbarnett8855]

Hey JP, I love your videos. I was wondering if you might do one sometime soon and show your bee vaccum. I catch glimpses of it sometimes, but I would love to see it up close where I might could build one like it. It seems to serve you well. Thanks for sharing your videos with us.

[@paulyhoffmann]

Those bees looked organized!

[@TheForgottenLegionEU]

Finally a new JP upload :D

[@babyhuey1878]

Good video JP

[@pundemon9659]

I've lived in Orlando almost my entire life and nothing (literally) screams "this is Florida" like those cicadas in the opening! 😂

[@teresahiggs4896]

It’s the whole south....I’ve lived in East Tennessee, Central North Carolina and now Northern Alabama and the cicadas are in all those places.... I LOVE them. For me, hearing Cicadas mean I’m home. I had to live in Pennsylvania for a while, no cicadas , and too cold and full of rude Yankees! So yeah, I love the South and cicadas!

[@spoonsmith9506]

LoL dude got a little pissed I think.

The bee Knight's on the mission to get the Queen

[@herbramsey3375]

That was very good

[@pamelaflirtyskunk7698]

HAHAHAHA! Poor Yappy searching and searching for that queen! Such a shame they want to tear that house down!

[@Birdbike719]

Is there really only one queen for that entire bee colony? Amazing!

[@violetsmith6579]

Be careful fellas, I'mpretty sure I saw a bee in that house! lol

[@joangolia2240]

You should invest in a SEE SNAKE.ITS a video screen on a long cable with a light on the end of the cable that you can insert into a small opening in the wall. Electricians use it to see wires in the walls ,plumbers also use it to check for leaks in hard to see places.NO NEED TO MAKE BIG HOLE IN THE WALLS, just a thought love your vedios I live in new york

[@JPthebeeman]

This was a vacant house about to be torn down & what you described is called a borescope which I do own. I use the borescope on occasion.

[@josivaldoferreira2825]

vc e o cara,eu adoro assistir seu vidio adoroooooo

I definitely understand why they call him Yappy.

[@cityhawk80]

16:05 I only know about beekeeping from your videos, but that's as close to perfect honey as it gets, right?

[@JPthebeeman]

+cityhawk80 I like all different types of honey but this honey was pretty dang good!
