I saw on Bug Farmers channel that he sprayed the water hose up in the air when one of his hives started to swarm and they came back to the hive. He said it's because they thought it was raining. I don't know if that would have worked for you, but I thought it was interesting.

The bees are going crazy! The loud noise in the background makes it sound like a fire drill and the bees are freaking out! Thanks for digging into the past to bring us more exciting adventures!

That was the coolest thing watching all those bees swarm out of the hive! Like you said "How often do you ever see that?!". Wow! Mother Nature in action! Wishing well for that hive .Glad they left that terrible beetle invasion! Awesome video guys!👍👍🤩

Thank You Jesus! Wow blessing of bees all over the place. Keep us posted on all three turned into one. Thanks Jeff and Charlie.

After trapping my first swarm this year and 3 additional swarms, I am hooked on bees, love swarm season! Never thought I would look forward to catching bees more than football season LOL! Great video and thank you for posting.

Its always a good time with Charlie. thanks for brightening my day Mr.Ed, God Bless!

How do you not get stung when your not wearing your bee suit? You are the Bee Whisper! 😂 Love your videos, Ed. 🙏🐝

It is our job to help and save the bees. Can you imagine a world without bees? I do not want to imagine that! Merry Christmas guys!

Always interesting what bees will do. Always nice to find the queen. Thanks for the video. God bless.

Great video and lots of fun again. You certainly do cheer up your viewers. Thank you Ed and Charlie.

Beekeeping is normally such a quiet occupation. Until you need more cowbell.

Very good work Jeff and Charlie its such a pleasure watching you two in action. Good job gentlemen.

Wow Mr Ed and Charlie that’s a big swarm

What a day of surprises! You two crack me up. Ever seen them building cone on a tree 🌳 in a swarm???

Best queen capture video ever, thwarted by a pecan leaf.

I have seen 3/4 swarms myself growing up , followed one about 100 yards away from where they started from was interesting to watch

well thgat was a mixed bag of a day. Turned into a nice compilation video. You know, you need to be careful following Charlie.. looked a bit rough in the projects where he lives

As a normal scarey cat I guess if I hear that sound To walk calmly in other direction😮

Looked like a good time all the way around

Thanks for the video

Awesome to experience bees swarming. Even better catching them

Always fun.

God bless you guys

I like how the sound from the bees doesn't seem to change even when the footage and other sounds are sped up.

Best way to start the day. A Professor Ed educational. Stroong in the Brethren!

I have a backyard Full of tiny white flowers All over the place. Last year there were hundreds of bees in my backyard in the fall. This year .. there are hardly any bees. Last winter killed a bunch of the natural hives.

Haha that is a busy afternoon for retired guys.

Great to see yall god peace. I need some of your prayers I am having a few health issues.

Thanks Mr.ED and the Guys 9-10-2022., I couldn’t do it myself

Im surprized how fast the bees can build up a comp and also where ever. Thanks for sharing God bless you both!

Bees leaving when you got there it's like they know who you are mr ed good time Charlie that was crazy 🤪God bless your the best keep on wrangling those bees 😆

WOW, I see now. Hive Beatles are something else HUH? 🙏🏾🤝🏾🇺🇸💪🏾

Love your videos so much. I've been watching for years. Thank you for posting.😊👏🏾👏🏾

Omg sooooo cool i have seen the killer bee guy have bees swarm but they attack. I love watching you and the bees you find .. and i love the Dirt Rooster

I can't believe that slimed comb is now useful for anything! Gives me the creeps!!! Glad you know better!

What a great video, a little bit of everything in one! Yuck that first hive, all those beetle maggots . I was stung when I was young and had a very bad allergic reaction, had to go to the hospital. For the life of me I can't remember if it was a bee or yellow jacket, and ever since I've been terrified of them all. I thought after so long of watching all your videos and loving the bees that I was better. There was a bee hanging around me the other day-I feel like I've failed you, Mr Ed, but I ran screaming and flailing like an idiot as I always do 😂. I'll have to continue admiring them on video!

Thanks for sharing

I've enjoyed watching your videos for a long time now. I could never do what you do because I'm allergic to beestings. Fun Fact...... Whenever I watch your videos, I always feel something crawling on me. I end up swatting at a be that's not there. God Bless and keep up the great work!!!! ( Jon)

Looks like wherenthe L0rd shuts a door He opens a window! Happy Jesus weekend U 2 and BLESSINGS!

I wish you could be my mentor. You have such a great process and a great group of friends!

Awesome!!!

Heyyy! There they are! A couple of my favorite fellas! Just what my Friday needed! Hope you're doing well! Much love! 💛

Never a dull moment!! Thanks Y'all!!

Your enthusiam is contagious!

Love your videos and love your positivity :)

I love your videos they always have such interesting information about bees! Thankyou

Great video guys :). Y’all sure have a good time wrangling bees. Thanks for sharing and letting me tag along :)

Such a hoot! Witnessing a cut out absconding? And an open treebranch swarm comb. Man His critter creations are such a wonderment. Thanks for sharing. Blessings brother.

Great job guys ❤️👍

Good work as always Mr Ed and Charlie. Hope all is well fellas

Welp, looks like you ended up going wide open on that day! Woot!

That was awesome! How could you keep it so long from us? Keep up the work!

There's nothing like the smell of a swarm in the morning.

What a long day. But this little hive in your care will one day become a great big hive. I imagine those hive beetles are prolific this time of year. In that warm wet climate it is their season. I thought the bees would be driving them off but I guess not. You got the queen and there will be new bee blood in the Abbey's bee keeping. Is honey anti fungal as well as naturally antibiotic? God bless you Jeff and Charlie and Ralph (wherever he is) and your dear sweetheart.

Could that be a Mating Flight Mr. Ed?........🙏🏾🤝🏾🇺🇸💪🏾

Hey Jeff, MORE COWBELL on this recording ( a la SNL) LOL

Try playing a thunderstorm with a few lightening claps loudly and see if the bees will land. I've noticed a lot of insects will drop to the ground if you clap your hands near them. I'm guessing they sense the noise as close thunder/lightening. Maybe just clapping your hands hard would do it, or slapping a couple of flat boards together.

❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏

You should have titled this one "how to catch a swarm in as little as two hours".

"Wrong.. again" 🤣🤣🤣🤣

🔥💕👍

Hi Charlie😂

Would've been prime time to set a ready made box up and let em possibly go in save ya alot work lol

What great timing!! A take good example of true professionals!! 😂. Just kidding! 😁

Mr Ed, you knock the on the Rooster so bad that you’ve got me feeling sorry for him!

Great video! Thanks for sharing. Did any of the roofers got stung?

Somehow the bees in the Southwest seem to sound meaner. They are mostly Africanized bees here. What some call killer bees. They are hard on pets and someone who happens to disturb their nest no matter if you can see them or not.

Mr. Ed, I'm ready to purchase a Flir hand held, what model do u use? Thanks for all the entertaining and educational videos.

What happened with the abscond swarm in the 60 foot tree? Did you set a swarm trap?

Hey Jeff I removed a hive three days ago in Texas that was covered in the beetle larvae I mean thousands of them it was a very old hive possibly 10 years old the smell was horrible once I remove the hive some of the larvae was still in there how do I remove that or what do I tell the homeowner to do to get rid of the rest of them do you know? Thank you and God bless you brother

Did youset up a trap box for the swarm to come back to?

always enjoy your vids , but charlie was abit shakey and he did give us some really good shots of a leaf

3 for 1, bonus video

1 and a half pieces of comb

This happened in May. How did it work out?

Mr, i will try to take off my first hive in a week, from a farm. It is winter end here, i have the sissy clothes, and i will try to relocate them. Any tips so we dont have the bees dying and most importantly that they dont get back to the same spot?

What percentage, approx, of bees die due to vacuuming them, surely it’s brutal, I’m a first year beekeeping novice and never heard of using vacuum before.

:)

hey Jeff, how can i get rid of yellowjackets? i've come to learn i have a nest of yellowjackets living in 1 of my walls? to be honest, i'd like to kill them off. is there anything i could go buy that would accomplish this?

Oh my gosh, that's really bad. I've not seen what a full blown hive beetle takeover looks like. Ewww! No wonder they bailed out! Yikes!

Well now you get a cut out and a swarm. Lol

Three removal jobs in one day ?!

99% of the "swarms" here in Aug/Sept are abscondings.... poor bees they need a safe home . . . (nothing like a brood frame to get a Queen)

🌹🌹❤️❤️🦘🐨

After this may be good idea to keep a nuke box or something ready made incase ya have one swarm again that way if they do just post that box up someplace and let em coast on in lol

Thank God y'all didn't stay in there longer

8:10 onward - Ewwwww
