Reed I don't know how you do it week after week in that 100 degree heat . I'm sure glad you do what you do. I hope you are training a few people to help you and eventually ... As you and I are not getting any younger... you will have people to when the time comes ---replace you and your expertise to continue managing these ruthless bees.

Please put more videos on youtube .. tiktok is so bad .

Holy hell!!! I couldn't imagine not knowing they were their and walking into that shed. Pretty much instant death.

I had one of my bee hives go Africanized here in Oregon. Had to get a full suit and ended up killing the hive because I kept getting too many stings

You kept me company all through out the pandemic and I enjoy the hell out of your videos. Have you ever been asked to travel the country an train other bee keepers how to deal with killer bee's

Hey guys, I'm very happy to have found you nice, informative fellows. You respect and understand our fellow creatures. Peace from Canada......and a new sub

The bees have an aircondition of their own, it has to be not to hot and not to cold either. They use their wings to cold it down and goes close with their bodies to make it warmer. Somethings all the bees go outside so their bodies wont heat the hive to much so the larves will survive .

I just can't get enough, you guys are awesome!!!

Those bees make such beautiful bright yellow comb!

“They just over react” sounds like most mammals with DNA from there as well……….

Dang! You haven't even started, and they're agitated

YOu are so of the most brave people I watch. Close to the survivor man style people. Hats off to you guys!

Recently started watching your great videos. These hives don't seem as aggressive as some of the others you've done. That may be why they have existed here so long without a problem. Definitely time to go now.

Great video Reed, God bless and continued health and prosperity to you

You guys are amazing props to you, I live in Indiana thankfully I haven’t seen any but I’m looking to buy some land, the education you put out is tremendous, you stay safe as I will now that I’m educated thank you

What is the adhesive your using?

I usually take the dronelarves and feeds the hens with it, they love it. That makes less varroa mites.

What kinda spray do you use on them

Excellent work

I am thinking that they were protecting the queen too 😮

How do you get the bee's off the honey comb to make the honey

We ate allued to have 15big hives without taxes, theres a rather big cost to get all the equipment, but then there is only a little cost to have them. We work about 30mimutes each week on each hive. The honey brings 95-120 swedisch crowns for half a kilogram. 1 dollar is about 11 swedisch crown. So its a very good income for little work with none taxes. The only thing the authorities expect from us is that we have to report were the hives are located. That is because of not spreading the american larves ingection. If anyone in the neighborhood gets that we all have to burn everything. So we ate very careful not to take bees or equippment without checking everything first.

dude those elftover bees can rehive and make a new queen

Does the county/state have a bounty on these ferral hives?

Will they just go of an die or will they stay under the shed

If you get overheated and dehydrated look up Drip Drop. I have used it here in Texas when being out in the hear. Just a thought

How long have they been there

Would smoking them before removal not calm them a wee bit ?

You guy's are awesome

Hello from west Virginia you guys been watching to guy all the time on here

They starves the queen before swarming so she will be unable to fly.

Jeez scratching the surface in eradicating africanised bees

I'm guessing you spend a considerable amount of time cleaning out cab of truck and tools at the end of a long removal day?

When you use the smoke, try some kind of trank smoke

What do you do with the brud when your done

We had honey bee hive under ground at are last house. We had to get a bee keeper to come out and clean it up since in texas it’s illegal to kill honey bees for obvious reasons we need them to pollinate plants. The ones we seemed nice I could go turn on the outside faucet without them attacking me so I’m guessing they weren’t killer bees.

Wow!

Damn Reed, your new videos always hit my work days, lol, well better late than never. Tik tok can go to hell. KZfaq is a better platform anyway. Give em hell Reed, you guys are the pros.

Oh man. I just made 2 orders and didn't know there was a coupon code.

a bee sock with bee jam between the toes🤣

are those stingers embeded in the face masks?

only takes 3 years to get that dark

You answered a earlier question for me and thank you for your time... I have a different question: Are there other companies or people that set swarm traps in optimal locations to prevent less harm to people or animals and after a successful trapping, exterminate them at say.... at night in humane ways??

Its inoetant to wasch your beesuits regulary.

Queens take the shortest time to develop (16 days) and have the longest lifespan. Queens live on average 1-2 years

Is your honey sold raw

Hey Killer bee guy, I've got these chinese electric mosquito killers paddles, can you do video where you use them instead of atheaisve spray to kill bees?

Where is the delicable Amanda?

Soooo scary!

Holy Hannah.

Life isn’t weird- people make it weird.

Summer Shandy is awesome, and bet you could wrap some brood comb in bacon and throw it on the grill and have a nice cheap steak alternative since everything is so expensive...and I'm joking btw.

Errrr.... Mr.KBG; I believe the technical term for the way to keep honey fresh is 'hygroscopy'......

Fire Storm.

Has there ever been a hive so hot you could remove it

I have all the understanding for what youre doing, sadly its neccesary. When people mixed them with the african bees, those are very angry. They make more honey, and they dont get sick so easily. But they has always been angry, its not wort it.

What is Viking honey?

Stay safe

I live in central floroda we are told the same thing about africanized bees but also a a small cluster of afrocananized bees and queen can take over a european colony

Do bees fart?

Lots of work with lots of reward!!! Thanks y'all!!!

Have you ever used honey begone on your fail if so does it work stay safe

You guys should have a flame thrower on the truck, just in case. : ) Me, I would have burned the dang shed...

Hey Reed,I have a question. Do they have a lot of problems with killer bees building in the aircraft at the boneyard there?

Love watching🇨🇦hi from canada

The queen is too fat to fly if they not are swarming.

Glue spray

Use it for wax. Killer bee wax.

Reed, nature adapts, no matter what you do to keep the Africanized bees out of the upper 48, it will be futile to try. Africanized bees are in Vancouver, BC right now. The only wish possible is that man could breed a calmer bee in time. We have done this in other species, breeding better cows, horses, sheep and so on. The money has to be spent to breed calmer bees, or we face hand pollination. The cost will be enormous, and many fruits and veggies that depended on insect pollination may be gone forever.

Why don’t you use vacuums to remove the Beas

They have looked on hobey friöom the pyramids in Egypt it was still eatable. Maybe harder but still good. The vikingbeer donevout of honey is strong and very tasty. Something to get easily drunk on.

Polken us nice to have in breakfast every day.

Here when the breed new better queens they iften do that on an island so they ant mate with any one else that rhey dlbt know anything about. They rhen will get better dna from them .

Do wasp get in an take honey😊

Look at all that delicious honey

w Wow

Lost two colonies this week... 😡

your views and subscribers will go up if you post more on KZfaq because the Chinese who own tik tok don't like your kinda content if it's not making fools of the Anglo American or European people's. I do have a serious question for you guys, I'm a Logger in the Western Mountain States and every so often we come into a wild bee hive in a burnt out pine or rotted out spruce tree and as of yet we have not had any trouble with these honey bees acting anything like the ones in these videos. Does that mean they are not Africanized yet ? A full summer ago (2021) we found a big hive in a burnt out ponderosa pine and had a bee keeper neighbor come and remove most of the bees and the Queen to a new hive at his place a few miles from us. we got all the comb and honey and tons of bees wax (which as loggers we use for all kinds of things) and he got the hive and Queen. That new hive survived just fine over the winter and he moved it to a high alpine flower laden pasture this spring and just brought it in for the winter to help the Bees survive the cold and deep snows of winter and they are really flourishing nicely. should we be paying better attention to the bees we run into I'm the mountains ? so far none have been anywhere as aggressive as the ones you've shown. ????

Why don't you go to Rumble?

Hello

I crush and strain my Viking style honey. Straight honey/pollen mix. My best seller. $5 an ounce.

A worker working with the scientists removed the entrance queen excluders from the colonies without knowing what he was doing . They brought queens over to South America in order to crossbreed the African queens with the European/Italian strain to produce a colony that can produce more honey in a shorter period of time.

Mmmmmmm, I love honey!!

Thanks for your input YOU may have saved my life. I thought about bee keeping N0PE. Still willl love to buy some honey
