  • that's extremely interesting thank you

  • As long as he's not allergic to bee venom, he should be all right. A little ice on the sting will relieve the pain.

  • @halovscallofduty if I was there and he dropped that panel...I would be half a mile away in two seconds.

  • how screwed would you be if you dropped that?

  • @neongamer by all means stop watching then, I found the video rather nice and informative, stop being so critical and do better if you can.

  • @hop1pop yes but it will also mess up the continuatity of your bees survival. bees lay queen cells in case of queen failure. when you have multiple queens , they will likely hatch on different weeks, If a queen is failing they let the queen spawn and force the ailing queen to leave(aka swarm) if the queen is strong they will kill the queen cell before it hatches.

  • @HecstasyQ bees rarely sting non aggressive people. working without gloves is actually a better way to not get stung. When you work with bees careful slow movement will make a bee less aggresive. Also understanding how a bee reacts will help you not get stung. guardian bees will be curious and actually land on your hood trying to see if you are there to harm or help them if they sense a threat they will sting you. its really neat.

  • I watched a bee carring out another bee to the grownd , and proceed to pound the shit out of it and fly back to the hive , which is inside the side of my house! I thought the bee was a huge bee until it got closer and I saw that it must of been the security 86ing a enemy combatant.

  • would cutting out the queen cases prevent swarming?

    would keeping in one queen case and removing the rest would prevent swarming?

    

  • @languagenut5

    Onions help with the sting significantly.

  • this stinks 

  • this guys got balls doin that with sleeves rolleed up so casually...
