Honey Bees In Wall In New Orleans-June 16 & 17 2010

JP · June 18, 2010, 12:38:08 PM

In retrospect scaffolding would have been a Godsend on this one. I set up two hives from this one. Saw the queen early the first evening on the newer bottom sections, she ran up though and I got her on day two.

Its been miserably hot so I am hesitant to use the bee vac, besides most all colonies are now full up with honey, regurgitation is a real issue this time of year.

This heat is wearing me down, perhaps I'll lose a few pounds, probably not though as I am eating basically one time a day usually around 11:30 at night.

Very nice job JP, bet you are glad there was not any electrical wires in those old insulators on the corner of the house.

Stay hydrated on those hot cut outs, most people don't realize you are wearing a jacket and sometimes a hood. Don't over heat on us!!

another great episode from JPTV!!

I really like it when the bee climbs over the camera.

nice video, wood lath and plaster interior with no insulation - that house was probably built before ww1. good video - interesting place.

When I go to pick the hives up I'll ask the young lady who hired me the age of this house. I'm guessing around 80 years old or so.

Allen, when I was editing the footage I had to include that bit with the bee on the camera. I thought it was rather cool too.
