She Found This On Her Mailbox And IMMEDIATLY Called ME is a YappyBeeman Production.
Welcome everyone to the start of a new honeybee season with me, Yappy Beeman. Things are starting off great so far. I have caught two amazing swarms and completed two bee removals that were amazing. My favorite was done a few days ago in Huntsville, Alabama from a porch column that had over 12 lbs of bees in it. Due to the logistics of the removal, no video was made but I did share the process of putting them in a beehive when I got home and how I weighed them to confirm the massive amount of bees. To see that video click here on our newly added second channel @HoneyMoneyTV where I will be doing more personalized livestreams and videos from the bee yard .

While in Birmingham, Alabama a few days ago, I received a call about a swarm of bees on a mailbox about 15 mins from my location. So I headed right over to find what you will see in this video. I was amazed to hear from the home owner that the bees had been there for almost 3 days. That would generally be very uncommon as bees don't stay in one place very long when they swarm like this. But the previous few days had been cold and rainy so that could explain their delay. But, that can also make them cranky and if messed with cause them to break their cluster and fly off before being caught. So I felt using the Everything Bee Vac I purchased back in the fall would be great to use on this swarm of bees. It defiantly did not disappoint. I was able to capture the swarm safely without harm and hold them in the container until the next day when I was able to put them in my horizontal beehive i purchased from horizontalbees.com
To check out the Everything bee vac go to allmybees.com and see if it is right for you.

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.

[@johanngrant]

Did any of these bees sting you by the way and if so is it important that you do not react badly while stung next to or in the middle of a swarm ?

[@BubaLabinski223]

So how long will you keep the queen in that little plastic container?

[@sbug2705]

It’s amazing that he can find the Queen amongst all those bees! I guess that’s why he is an expert at what he does.

[@628DirtRooster]

I like the V-dub in the background. Good job on the educational aspect.

[@YappyBeeman]

V dub....lol. did you mean bug.

[@DatBoiOrly]

5:49 FINALLY you did it now I can watch you take care of the Bee's!!!! I've been waiting for this for 2 years!!!!

[@YappyBeeman]

Thats so funny. I just went out and recorded an update on the mega hive split from a week ago. It should be out in a few days. WE HAVE A NEW QUEEN!!!!

[@tonyandric4380]

The vacuum makes it virgin voyage with such a nice swarm. Easy Peasy! No extension cords, quick as lightning. Glad you're liking the new vac.

[@loribach534]

It still amazes me how you find the queen so fast!

Always Yappy to see a new video pop up. I used to be terrified of bees 🐝 but now find them fascinating. I blame you and Dirt Rooster and JP the Bee Man, but mostly you LOL! Thanks for sharing and caring.

@@YappyBeeman Hi Yappy, my husband and I watched your show for quite a while now, you were one who help Bob learn how to keep bees. This is our 3 or 4 year now. And we do get a lot of honey. I think the most he had was 10 or 12. Over this past winter we lost more hives then ever. But we got the ones we have going well. Not sure 5 or 6 maybe now? Happy bee keeping and will see you next video. Bee happy 😊

I can't wait till I can be relied on for catching swarms. Haven't done it yet!

Once you do, you're hooked. Trust me

[@Susietacoma]

Yappy, I really like the clear, extra large nozzle on the new bee vac. It made quick work of scooping them up. Very nice.

[@YappyBeeman]

Tony sent me that back in January. I like it as well. Neat to see as they slide down it.

[@Susietacoma]

@@YappyBeeman Yes, I think that is nice too. “Down you go!”

[@gene-sloca]

Happy, how long did you keep the Queen caged?

[@YappyBeeman]

Just a few days until the bees start making comb.

[@jerickman]

@@YappyBeemanIs the idea to keep the queen in the box so as not to take the swarm elsewhere while the comb is being built?

[@Kiyeran]

@@jerickman Yes, as long as the queen is trapped the swarm won't leave. Or they will come back when the realize the queen didn't come with them.

Honey Bees ARE "SWEET"!!! 🍯 🐝

[@luckydubeinrc5165]

i have the same hive, but home made, 21 frame job, its real heavy when full requires 2 grown ups to carry or move, with a full hive its really heavy...remember that :)

[@BrianJMader54476]

😎👍

[@denisethompson3819]

I thought that was a wonderful swarm. Very convenient for Yappy to rescue them and relocate. I miss the sounds of their busy drumming.

[@lourensklopper4217]

Love your longhive Langstroth hive. Question?? Is this your first longhive? Are you only use 1 swarm of bees? Why not start from the middle and let the bees work side ways?

[@YappyBeeman]

This is my 3rd Horizontal. My other 2 have the side entrance and it works well. The way I set up this one is to mimic hives I remove from between floors of a house. I can predict exactly how they build out and where they put will make honey vs brood. I can also manage space better in my theory with an end entrance. In the middle the put honey to the right and left of the brood. I will have a video to explain the theory in future video (s) and it will probably make more sense.

[@countrycluckers7644]

do the queens have stingers like the worker bees?

I understand that they do but I personally have never been stung by one.

Yes they are. And if the word gets out, us guys will never hear the end of it from our wives.....wink wink.

[@lambbrookfarm4528]

Is that like" she came in through the bathroom window"

[@lgull1]

Question, if she was already in the box, why did you capture her?

[@tonyandric4380]

The colony could swarm away again from his hive box if they're in a bad mood or don't like it. If she stays in a cage, then the colony will be forced to stay there and accept the new location. Give them a day or two to settle down and accept their new home.

[@YappyBeeman]

What Tony said. Perfect answer.

[@lgull1]

[@brthcntrl]

Was that the queen at 3:54?

Disregard, you answered my question at 4:47 lol

Disregard noted

[@spencerherrick9392]

Just curious, do you cage the queen so she won’t leave the hive? How long do you keep her caged?

[@YappyBeeman]

She is generally released after about 3 days.

[@YappyBeeman]

You seriously think I am trying to impress them?

[@rickpierce3231]

@@YappyBeeman if you're rehoming killer bees, you might be your own demise.

[@YappyBeeman]

And thats where your assumption makes the Killer Bee Guys an authority they are not. The problem is, they thrive on the dramatics to get you to watch them. Then, unfortunately, you believe ALL BEES are killer bees and have no desire to educate yourself on this. What is a "killer bee" anyway? That is a descriptive falsely given to a genetic of bees that are actually just hyper defensive. Their true genetic is more commonly "africanized" but that doesn't sell the narrative if you are looking for views. My entire channel is shown with me not wearing a bee suit about 98% of the time. Not because I am some special, but because I took the time to learn about the bug I deal with and how to handle and work with them. I also learned that there are only a few areas in the USA that can sustain the africanized genetic . Of which, I don't live anywhere near. I know many bee keepers who keep the africanized bees and make honey with them just fine. But....they do not work them without proper gear nor would I. So please, take this as I hope you will as a great conversation and not as if I was trying to disrespect you personally. It was not my intent. I only hope that in the future, maybe you would ask a few questions before you assume something.

[@rickpierce3231]

@@YappyBeeman I'm just going by what they say, they say we're not supposed to have honey bees here only pollinators. I'm not a bee expert, I see less bees every year here, 2 provinces have had them in Canada, I hear they are taking over our local bees,that's not good. So maybe you and them will get on the same page one day and explain both sides. It can't be for the greed of making money off of honey?

[@YappyBeeman]

Wait....you are in Canada? I will look in to what you say about having africanized bees up there to better understand that possibility but at first glance I would say I wouldn't trust the info.

Nah, there isn't any reason to do that.

[@alangray9753]

I like the short 6 -10min videos. Ones more than 10 -12mins are to me just boring.

[@YappyBeeman]

If the storyline flows and content is produced well. Size shouldn't matter ....bwahahahhahah.

[@caveatemp]

Why do you feel the need to find and capture the queen?

[@YappyBeeman]

Couple of reasons. First is to confirm she is there and to check if there are any more. A cast swarm as bee keepers call it is a secondary swarm the hive kicks off with unmated queens. Larger colonies can do this. When setting up a colony caught like this, I only want 1 queen left in my box to ensure they dont leave with an unknown queen in the box. There is also a chance thatbeven with 1 queen they can still leave for various reasons so by caging her for a few days, the bees stay and start to build her a home without leaving.

[@caveatemp]

I see. So you want to find all possible queens in the swarm because- hypothetically- you could find one, cage her, and still the bees go off with another queen in the swarm. In this case, did you search for other queens? What do you do with other queens if you do find them? @@YappyBeeman

[@caveatemp]

By the way, no swarms yet here in Chattanooga. Patiently waiting...

[@YappyBeeman]

I could use the extras in splits from other hives or give them away to local beeks to do the same if I don't need them.
