Massive Angry Beehive Found In A Rental Home

The "BEST" Of A Worst Case Scenario They Could Have .......is not an understatement ! Everything about this removal is going against me. When the impossible becomes possible I take advantage of it. Had things been just a bit different, this would have turned out much worse but the construction gave me a break and the bees made up for it with their attitudes.
Here we are at it again and I'm excited to share another episode of my bee adventures with all of you. the bees however, not so much. They were not on board with being famous and I can't blame them. Bad timing on their part but it's my job to save them.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I did and remember, I am a trained professional.....wink wink. Don't try this at home. or anywhere else for that matter.
Honeybees can always be dangerous and it is not recommended to attempt to remove them with experience with bees or construction knowledge.
I hope you enjoy this little bit of fun. I enjoy your feedback in the comments and thank you for taking the time to check out my channel. Until the next time, enjoy the show.

[@donbearden1953]

Yappy, that floor joist ain’t going no where! I totally understood how you said you were going to put it back and that’s exactly what I would have done! I ready for the next one!

[@YappyBeeman]

Man, I got hammered by a wannacarpenter on a video one time for cutting a band board. Anyone with half a brain could understand the repair but some people just gotta complain about something. I say, if a 14" section being removed is so vital to the strength of that structure and my repair process isn't adequate, that house has bigger problems than what I did!

[@phydeaux5090]

any video with some construction element in it always has haters. Those people are tiring and of course don't post their own.

[@TanksInSpace_]

As a carpenter I would advise you to put two 3/4 heavy-duty 5-point irons on these double joists 5-inch screws ... but I'm just an electrician. 😀 MAMMYYYYYYYY !!

[@YappyBeeman]

Bwahahaha. Dang electricians.

[@dcsblessedbees]

Way cool mural. 😁 That's what happens when they don't caulk the bottom run of the vinyl, bad instillation. I'd cut on the in side of the joists then scab in nailing blocks for extra support when replacing the cut out section. Yappy as a retired contractor it is nice to see beekeepers doing cut outs correctly.👍👍👍

[@donaldtyree3618]

As a carpenter, I think you did a fine job. It’s more of a nailer than a joist. You left the rim joist intact so no structural damage was done. Once again, fine job. Also, love your advice. If you don’t love what you do, do something else! Love you buddy❤

[@randymorgan-droneovermichigan]

Yappy! I can't believe you cut the floor joist! Wait! Just kidding 😂 Some guys would grab a can of Raid, and call it good. It's always great to watch you go the extra mile to save the ladies 😊

[@YappyBeeman]

Thats no lie.....unfortunately. But they learn when it comes time to clean that mess out.

[@kiky4881]

[@jerrygrill2445]

Great content and love your attitude. I never really thought I would find myself watching bee videos, but you make it a must for me to watch. Keep up the good work. How many times do you typically get stung per recovery jobs you get called to. I assume you just build up a tolerance to the pain and venom? Thanks Yappy

[@YappyBeeman]

If I do it right, generally not many, if any. But these bees were on a war path from the get go and I took a bunch before the suit.

[@minerran]

I really enjoy these beeman videos and learn a lot. I never knew that a beehive is like a single living organism in that each hive has its own level of aggressiveness/defensiveness similar to a vertebrate animal. I see that in this video. Some hives are easy to remove, others require the suit not to get stung. Fascinating!

[@Slikx666]

There's something nice about bees, I just sit near them when they're on the flowers. Never been stung. 😀👍

[@haggielady]

Thank you Yappy for the video. I absolutely love bees but can't get near them, allergic to them. Get some new batteries so you can do more videos. They make my heart sing. I also love your sense of humour. Not enough of that around.

[@traneawilson6024]

I like the versatility in this video. Some cases bees are irritated, and you need a suit. Bees are not super happy and ready to go all the time. Great Video

[@zalmaflash]

Any carpenter type person that is a beekeeper would understand. I'm an electrician. Thanks for the video.

[@YappyBeeman]

Glad to see you stip by as always.

[@nightshade4071]

I liked hearing the vacuum and bees 😹🤣

[@bethsantoro1963]

Yappy you are awesome and you did the right thing. This was like you said Best of the worst. Those honeycombs were very very old!!!!!!! How long does it take for it to turn that color????

[@YappyBeeman]

It actually was probably an early spring swarm (april'ish) here in Central Bama. But a very nice one once they settled down.

[@honeyb3384]

I absolutely love bees!

[@bbox5938]

Excellent job! Way to narrow down the location and take care of it perfectly from inside.

[@loribach534]

To be a carpenter on top of being a bee rescuer. That's quite a combination!

[@OkieRob]

Well worst case scenario should be mandatory the camera battery dies.

[@YappyBeeman]

That was the 4th battery I used for this one. I took some footage for sure.

[@FLIPPER1439]

Hello 👋 MR. BEE 🐝 GUY I just watched you collect “7” Queen bees 🐝 Amazing as I’ve never seen anymore then “1” Queen Bee 🐝 by any one. Now I’m catching up on your newer videos. Whoever painted bees 🐝 on your box did an awesome 👏🏻 job. I live on East Coast of Florida 🌴and I’d love to have some Honey 🍯 with the comb in it. Do you ever sell the honey and ship it?

[@fordguy8792]

I get so jealous seeing all that fresh honey just runnin' and drippin' everywhere! Doesn't get any fresher than that! Just need some buttered toast...

[@YappyBeeman]

Now I gotta go eat me some...thanks. lol

[@davidmckeever2443]

Way to go Yappy...great video. Like that you couldn't leave that queen .... Had to bring her home..no Queen left behind.

[@timar6868]

had yellow jackets last year make a hive under/inside vinal and brick it took me all summer to kill them off b.c it was so hard to put the powder inside and it was 2nd story...ugh

[@TanksInSpace_]

why didn't you wait till they all abandoned the nest at the end of the season so there wouldn't be a rotting mess left inside the wall?

[@catchyoulateroutdoors8401]

Wow, you’re definitely an expert at what you do for sure! Keep It up ! GOD Bless !!!!!!

Wow just found you this is great!

Glad you did. Hope you enoy my crazy fun with bees.

[@phyllisbell8698]

Any idea what has happened with JP? It's been over a month, since there has been a video from him. I hope he's ok.

[@TanksInSpace_]

In some of the comments on his videos about that he replied that he's fine but has a lot of other things to do and no time to make new videos

[@phyllisbell8698]

@TanksInSpace_ thank you for your response. I've been concerned about him.

[@KayAteChef]

Nice size comb for framing up.

[@ThePollaton]

Looked like you were getting enough grief from the ladies, never mind any carpenters😆 nicely done though that queen hung around for you

[@YappyBeeman]

Bad start but turned out to be some fun.

[@bravefan4308]

I don't know if this question has been asked but, I see all sorts of yellow colored comb/hive. How come it's so white here? I was pretty surprised how "clean" it was.

[@YappyBeeman]

Newer made comb will start out white but as they use it, it will become darker.

[@nickandrew3242]

Hi Yappy. I've just subscribed and from the U.K. Why is it that killer Bee guy destroys every hive he encounters. Is this wrong as I think they only attack him as they know he is trying to kill them.

[@YappyBeeman]

Im not a fan of him and believe there are much better ways but he plays the drama of it. Sadly.

[@traneawilson6024]

I would like to know if the queen was the reason for the anger bees, and if so, did you have to change to a calm queen?

[@Melody-st4df]

Hey Yappy, you had any dealings with Mortar Bee's? Here in the UK a farmer once took me to show me the damage they can do to a property. It was incredible to me! 😮

[@YappyBeeman]

I don't believe we have anything like that here or I have never dealt with them

[@thecrow6915]

Amazing video

[@plethoraOFtrivia]

Yappy, I called Mom. She said to tell you to mind your own dang business! 😊🎉

😮 my negibor had the same problem, bee keepers wouldn't take them so insted the killed the hive. Then tore open the wall to remove the dead bees and hive sheetrock honeycone honey , he was worried about loose bees in his house more then saving the bees.

[@bridgettetullos842]

Did vacuum the bees hurt the bees.

Those bees arent that bad. I have had a hive be so mean I didnt bring them home I sold them to a pollinator guy I know, and he didnt like them.

[@alicel3992]

Were they African bees or hybrid?

[@joeyl.rowland4153]

@@alicel3992 probably a hybrid. I don't know I pulled them boxed them they took and I talked to him cause I took enough stings he said he would give me 175 bucks for them for pollinators. Here you go I don't care what you do with them get them mean bees away from me. My bees 2 stings is the worst I ever got, most times they just ignore me. Calm nice. That is how they should be.

I'm currently in the middle of finishing a house inside a shell and I'm fortunate enough to have builders with 40 yrs of experience teaching me how to do it right.

Also, aren't Oscillating saws and framing nailers awesome?? Ooo Acrocanthus?

Always that one person that has to act like they are smarter than the rest of us. But as a non carpenter myself, even that made sense on the repair. Thanks for the comment and best wishes on the new house.

Yappy eye only lasts a few hours for me. I've been stung enough that it doesnt really effect me anymore.

So sorry that you got stung. What were you spraying from the bottle? Did you seal the hole between brick and vinyl or leave it open for the ladies to escape rather than being trapped inside the walls? Stay safe out there. Peace brother

[@unclegreybeard3969]

The spraying he did after the comb removal was most likely repellent, he uses it to drive the strays back to where he could catch them.
