  • I'm a beekeeper and my father was before me ,in the case where the bees were behind the brick wall, I would have identified the bees entrance as you did but came back at night while all the workers and drones were back in the hive and then sealed all openings . over 95 percent of the colony would have been trapped and died within a day without water . The foam sealer works very well

    • And so does a vintage 1980s cylinder Vax hoover with a very long hose and several very large black binbags. My Grandad took out a wasp's nest this way. It was in my Grandparents loft with the entrance and exit hole over the exterior bkitchen door where everybody goes in and out. Worst thing is, my Gran is deathly allergic to any insect stings, so they also have a net door curtain to stop most insects flying in or out, but they would do better with a snap screen which I just bought for my patio doors, where the curtain is two curtains across the door with magnets snapping the two halves together. You and your animals can still use a door with a snapscreen. Just walk smack bang through the middle.

  • Love the passion Reed Booth has for his job. Looks like he has a great crew with him also. This video is very educational and has brought to my attention how dangerious Killer Bees really are. The state I live in doesn't have a high killer bee population, but it's good to be aware of the serious dangers. Seeing how a swarm can attack your face within seconds is just outright scary. Makes you really appreciate their job and their knowledge on how to deal with these hives. Much appreciation for what you do.

  • As a former US hobby bee-keeper who now lives in South America, I can attest to the full truthfulness and authenticity of this video. In the States I always raised European bees. But I attempted to rid a person's home here of these African monsters one time and neighbors for blocks had to evacuate. They almost killed a pet goat and chased me over a half mile from their hive, buried inside the home's layers. One has to have a super professional, thick suit, to get near these killers.

    • Isn’t this guy a bit reckless though? I’ve seen bee keepers remove bee and wasp nests before, and they prep the nest with smoke for a while first and really take their time so the wasps don’t fully activate their defense responses. I suppose he wanted some good footage of them being aggressive for the documentary, but he could have gotten himself or the camera crew in trouble the way they got swarmed. Those bastards will definitely follow you for hours into buildings and cars so I could see this going wrong especially for neighbors and people that didn’t know they were removing a nest that day. I just noticed they broke out the smoke after the bees were already pissed and it was basically pointless to use it. If something had happened to these guys or the neighbors this would have been a infamous training video about what not to do when removing bee colonies Lol.

  • When was this made? Africanized bees have been here quite some time, I used to deal with them professionally all the time in San Antonio. Over the years they've settled down, genetically the aggression is being watered down the more they breed into the european colonies they encounter. They aren't near as ornery now as they were the first few years after they crossed the border. It's quite an experience when they go at you, I've had them covering me 6 inches thick (wearing my bee suit, of course). Even through the suit you get stung, inside elbows especially, anywhere they might get squeezed onto the suit. You just have to stay calm, breath normally, and enjoy the ride! I loved working with them. They had their orders, I had mine, they just happened to conflict.

  • From 2000 to 2017, I resided in Uganda, dedicating myself to beekeeping. There's a unique connection one develops when dealing with the apis mellifera scutellata species. The initial years were challenging; a tragic incident involved my great dane succumbing to their stings. Yet, over six years, I learned to establish a harmonious rapport with them. The subsequent 11 years, during which I worked without a bee suit, were truly gratifying. These bees exhibit a pleasant temperament if approached correctly. The key is abandoning European bee-handling methods and adopting a gentle approach from the outset. They primarily seek to protect their nest, and if approached gently, they respond in kind. You can find videos of my experiences with them on KZhead.

  • I wish this killer bee guy had been around when my Yuma, Arizona home was attacked. The hive was on my neighbor’s property near my carport. There was also a grade school, high school and middle school within 2-blocks of my home. I complained to him that I was being stung when I tried to get from my car into my home. I called an exterminator and they said it would cost him a couple hundred dollars to clear it out because the nest was so well established. He didn’t want to pay that. He thought it would be easier to spray the hive with bug spray at 3 in the afternoon because they were bothering him when he needed to fix his TV cable. When bees started pouring out, he grabbed his dog and ran inside his house. At least 25 school kids got stung, I lost 3 dogs, 3 mated pairs of doves and 4 mated pairs of pigeons. I can still remember the crunchy sound of dead bees that had expended their stingers under my feet.

I soaped them at sunset and later that night, I foamed the entrance shut. There were still a couple of stragglers hanging around sleeping that night. Took care of those too.

  • Not a good idea to handle killer bees in the heat of the day. Better to try early in the morning or just as it gets dark. Sometimes they use catcher boxes to attract the hive into a more suitable habitat. Lots of smoke all the time calms them. They are much more active and energetic than domesticated bees, which is why they were bred. I've only been stung by African bees and it feels like you've been cut with a sharp knife. They're only aggressive if you interfere at the hive, but they'll shoo off when foraging or drinking. Unless you kill one, then the smell causes them to attack.

Isn't attacking a hive better at night when the bees are resting, at least when it's also dark and less risky with the public around like it was with their Tombstone AZ job. I was riding my bike with a lot of exertion and breathed in a bee, just a common hornet, and it stung me inside my mouth, not fun ha! What helped was immediately I pinched very hard the sting area between my teeth as the sting was just below the inside of my lower lip and sucked in very hard and I think I drew out the stinger and venom and recovered quickly. I can't imagine what it was like for them with African bees, wow!

    • A sting from a paper wasp is worse than that of an African bee. I survived over 300 stings from African bees. I remember finishing the job on a scaffold 12m up on a chimney. When I came down, a white light shone on me and everything green went pale white. I called out to Yeshua to save me and I climbed in my truck and I drove 20km in that condition to a medical room. The medics would not believe me when I told them that I drove there by myself. I had no pulse rate, no blood pressure, and a blood-oxygen level of less than 25% [min. = 95%]. After a shot of cortisone, my blood pressure went up to 280 before coming down. They told me that they thought I had died as I had all the vital signs of a dead person. I was wide awake and I remember everything. It is a miracle from God that I survived.

Many locals justifiably and with paranoia absolutely refuse to work where they are. However, I chose to welcome the calmer version of these bees on my finca, and I have, and I will feed them honey and sugar water after hurricanes, when their food sources are destroyed or depleted. I wear a white beekeeper suit and gloves when I do this. I have yet to be stung.

  • 7:38 Sorry, but that's not what smoking a hive of bees does. The smoke doesn't tell bees that the hive is on fire. What it does is mask the pheromones that bees use to communicate with the rest of the hive in order to warn of attackers and send signals to the rest of the hive to be aggressive. When he smokes the hive, what he's doing is he is masking the pheromones of the bees in the hive that would make them active and aggressive. It won't stop the bees already in the air from attacking because it's obviously not enough smoke for the bees already active, but it will calm the bees inside to allow them to take the combs out. The smoke doesn't kill the bees but it pacifies them (a bit).
