Saving 2 Beehives From Ants & Termites

This termite & ant infested garage had 2 honey bee colonies living in its walls. The bees really needed a new home & I was glad to give it to them.
Watch as I open wall voids & remove termite infested soundboard to get to the bees.
The bees were likely not really bothering anyone all that much as they were pretty gentle but the contractor repairing the garage couldn't do what he needed to do with the bees in there so that is why I was called in to relocate the colonies.

You must have gotten your smoker material from a French Quarter supplier to make those bees talk like that.

[@JPthebeeman]

Bees always have talked to me, these were just insistent they be part of the video. It was either that or getting stung a few hundred times. They were the bossiest bees I’ve ever run across! 🤪

[@gullreefclub]

JPthebeeman I always knew that you were a "Bee Whisper" and now that you have gotten them on tape talking to you have proof. All joking aside I like the "bee talk" in the video and for those who cannot find humor in it may there bee all swarm to tallest trees in their bee yard on a hot and sunny day. staysafe stayhealthy and may the da rona never find your way.

[@vasney2321]

That pink comb is really strange. The only thing I can think of is maybe man made humming bird food. I also really love the "bees" talking back to you .

[@drecknathmagladery9118]

i actually agree with the theory of the hummingbird nectar my parents have a bunch of humming bird feeders spread out all over the yard and i seem to recall a bee hive that popped up when i was a lot younger that had to be removed had a similar pinkish hue and the bees did seem to gather around the humming bird feeders so maybe that leaks into the honey comb im not really sure probably tastes good though

[@kellydrodgers8957]

Highly likely. Honey pot ants were fed with sugar water dyed red, their tasters turned red from the dye in the sugar water. Since Honey bees carry the Hummingbird nectar back to their hive to deposit in the cells, it's make sense that the dye in the nectar would stain the wax.

[@mikeb5063]

Could be dry algae, If the wall has a leak it could deposit algae over the comb

[@MElixirDNB]

@@drecknathmagladery9118 the way to know for sure is if they started talking to you like in this video o.O

I think the pink is from the paint on the barn wall. more specifically the crumbling parts of the wall

[@user-bf5bh4bi9y]

We bought our house in February of this year without realizing that our next door neighbor is a bee 🐝 keeper! We have always had respect for bees, as everyone should, but I did have several questions for our new neighbor. I have learned a lot such as the differences between the drone, worker and Queen. Our neighbor answered all of our questions as we have an 19 month old grandson. We do have fences separating the yards, but I didn’t know if they swarmed just to swarm. He assured us that that was not a normal thing. We have made it through the summer almost and all is well. I do suggest that you have young children allergy tested to see if they are allergic to bee stings. Adults as well if you live in the Country. We were told when we bought our house that it would take police/ambulance approximately 12-15 minutes to get to us. I have bad allergies and the local (Free) honey has been great! Soon he is going to show us how to get the honey off the comb! I came across one of your videos this morning, Bee’s in the Garbage Can, I have been watching your videos for the last two hours! Thank you! 💜🐝

LOL so funny when you give the commentary voice of the bee’s in the high pitch voice . Wow your city or town should give you an award for how many lives of pollinators you save . These girls seemed pretty well behaved and not very feisty. Thank you again for ensuring these two hives of honey bees lived another entire life pollinating , making honey , tending to the brood and the queen. Keep up the great work and keep the videos flowing.

[@lukki7ster]

Yay JP. Glad to see ur face 😊

[@lorrieruff4402]

That was a fun video, I like the little bee voices. What I thought was odd was the sound the old hive made as you removed it. Sounded like dry old news papers, that sat to long out side and dried up. Crunchy like dry leaves. Love the End where the bees where making their way to a new home, march, march, march. The porch does look nice. It's nice that you work with others to promote business with buds. Take Care JP, Till your next one. Stay Safe, Stay Healthy.

I watch a few different bee and bee removal channels (like 628, Jeff, Shawee etc) but JP has the most relaxed style. I use the same technique with my bees and I'm sure that they appreciate it.

[@faerefolke]

Such precious little creatures. They must be protected at all costs. The world needs the sweet, little honeybee.

[@helenscott8202]

I would call that color maybe a light salmon. Definitely some pink in it. Actually, the wood it’s on has that same color on the outside of the structure. Always great to see your videos!

[@JPthebeeman]

The exterior was a Pepto Bismal pink but it was in bad shape & likely painted a million years ago so I don’t think there’s a correlation between the paint & the color of the comb, just my opinion.

[@helenscott8202]

JPthebeeman works for me! I’m not there. Colors on YT are frequently iffy at best.

[@drecknathmagladery9118]

@@JPthebeeman i noticed someone else bring it up but perhaps the color was coming from hummingbird feeders that where near by you know the red artificial mixture of sugar water and i guess nectar that goes in them that's meant to simulate flowers

Keep up the great work and stay safe from the storms coming

[@auntiebb5814]

I will reveal something about my experience with Bees - other than my introduction via Uncle in Germany. I worked for about 3 years in an Apple Orchard here in Australia & every year we had to thin out the blooms, to keep down the apple crop. Bees and horticulturalists worked together. I was NEVER stung once while doing so, and I touched their soft furry little bodies all the time - the sweetest memory! Oh how I love them ! Bees love & understand work, appreciate/respect co-operation ... or they are just so single minded and driven...tunnel vision kind of thing...even though...I bet the experts could shine some light on that ...please share:))

Offering feedback: The bee voices are cute, but overall I'm not the biggest fan. I don't think they're bad or anything, just not the biggest fan of 'em if that makes sense. They're still cute tho!

[@mariayelruh]

I really enjoy JBs videos, lots of information I find the new voices annoying. Maybe it's the pitch or speed, just jarring from listening to JB's soft slow voice talking about what he is doing. It's cool he's trying new things, but a little goes a long way.

[@slavkei]

I don't hate them and they certainly won't stop me from continuing to watch videos if he continues them! I'm just offering honest fan feedback. In the end, it'll be his choice on what he does, and I'll keep watching either way, so it's literally just feedback from a viewer as far as I'm concerned.

[@coloringwithd]

Okay JP, the bees need to have more say. They obviously have opinions and feelings, let them express themselves. LOL Question: When setting up a new hive with the wild comb into a box, is there a high chance that you will transfer hive beetles or mites into it and infecting your apiary? I wish I could do what you do. I love bees, I love honey, but the buzzing by my ears really gets to me. Thank you so much for sharing. ♥♥♥

[@JPthebeeman]

It kind of depends. In my area small hive beetles are usually only an issue if the hive is weak & or low on numbers. I actually don’t see too many issues with mites in feral colonies. Not that they’re not present but usually in low numbers.
