This is the one you've all been asking for!
I didn't include the dropping trow part :-D

Scott, you need a hair cut.
PS...Good job there.
very nice. that looked like a long run from the entrance to the top of the hive. what a sweet lady :-D she can be forgiven for dropping her britches. she certainly wouldn't be the first to have done it!
Nice One
that will show others what Hive Beetles are like down here :-x
Amazing, you were able to divide yourself in half at 6:08 and later on in the video. Two Scott's removing bees, wish I could do that! :-D
I miss my Ginsu knife!
That's some strange construction right there brother!
Another great job bro, missed Peggy in this one.
She doing ok?
...JP
Thanks everyone!
Iddee, I cut my hair every day :-D
Kathy, yes, the entrance was at ground level and the comb was attached 8' up.
TommyT, The last 3-4 removals I've done were just FULL of SHB! I don't know if this was a particularly bad year for them? The bees seem to keep them corralled and under control some how.
JP, I didn't even know I could do that overlay stuff until it just "happened"...cool. Peggy's getting better but still can't do much. I guess the bones won't fully knit for another month or so :'(
Scott
You needed a separate bucket with oil just to throw the comb covered with the beetles in. What a load of honey in there. The old barn corner, was that a creosote round post holding up the roof? Good video.
That was fun to watch. Did you find the queen later on??
Scott, great video! Thank you for showing the beetles, I've never seen one outside of still shots.

Give me your address and I'll send you a box full. :-D
Well, gosh darned it, Allen, I just shut all my hives down for winter! Rotten timing on that. Maybe next year. :-P
Ya, in the springtime, we will have new fresh ones......
