Welcome to another bee adventure by Yappy Beeman. In this episode I travel to Eastaboga Alabama to remove a massive beehive from a historic 100+ year old home.
The back story is the tenants are refurbing the home and had found a year prior that a beehive was living between the floors of the home. They colony for some reason didn't make it through the season and they removed the old comb and honey left behind and did repairs inside the home. Unfortunately, they didn't understand how to prevent their return and a new colony moved in where the old had been. Not wanting to harm the bees, they called me for options and the rest is all great video fun.

**** I generally don't make production mistakes but to be transparent I have to admit I made a booboo. In the ending of the video, I showed the wrong nuc box footage and queen. After I returned that evening, I removed the 2 palstic frames in the nuc and looked for the queen. I did find her but did not get any extra footage. Days later, I was videoing some of the colonies in the yard for B roll and somehow got that footage mixed in with this removals footage unmistakenly. Bee removal season can get a bit hectic and I apologize for the mistake. I still hope you all enjoyed the video and I appreciate the viewer who pointed it out. Bee blessed friends.


I hope you enjoyed this episode and look forward to your comments.

Honey Bee Wiki:
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.

Etymology and name
The genus name Apis is Latin for "bee".[4][5] Although modern dictionaries may refer to Apis as either honey bee or honeybee, entomologist Robert Snodgrass asserts that correct usage requires two words, i.e., honey bee, because it is a kind or type of bee. It is incorrect to run the two words together, as in dragonfly or butterfly.
