Another job well done by Mr. Ed.....I am glad to see the girls getting well taken care of time and time again by the fabulous work you and the dirtrooster do. God bless and take care
Thank you for your blessing, I need as many as I can get so keep them coming. It's a real pleasure wrangling bees and sharing the experience, thank you for following along. God's peace. Mr. Ed
What a great comment! I post these videos, to show just how important bees are to our very survival, and why we should not just kill them out of ignorance. I have been rescuing bees from being needlessly destroyed for over 6 years now, and hope to continue to do so for many more years to come. Thanks for watching, and I hope you will check out more of my bee wrangling/ bee rescues adventures and let me know what you think of them. By the way, I post a new video every Friday morning, and I look forward to hearing from you again soon. God's peace. Mr. Ed
@@JeffHorchoff Subrscribed since the first video.Keep them comming.They are sure fun to watch.Keep the positive vibes really enjoy your work.Happy new year Mr Ed.
@@Cyrusthegreat87 Thank you so much for subbing to my channel, I'm humbled every time someone does that. Again, thank you for your gift. Until the next video, thanks for watching. Mr. Ed

Just thought I would share something with you and your viewer's. I drive a big truck all over the us. Everyday it is a challenge trying to find parking at a truck stop at the end of my day. Every time I find a spot I always end my day with the prais "THANK YOU JESUS". So I immediately think of JESUS and MR ED. Thank you sir for reminding us that we should always give thanks to God for all the simple blessings in our life.
What a blessing for you Jose to recognize and give credit for the blessing and grace we receive. It is a real joy to hear you say it. Keep up the good work, and drive safe. God's peace brother. Mr. Ed
This is 1 of the many things I like about you Mr Ed. you don't just remove the combs and that's it like quite a few bee youtubers do (infact I unsub'd to a few for only doing that) .You vacuum them to transport, you help the Abbey by placing the hives there. To quote a line from the blues brothers " we're on a mission from God" you and the bees. God Bless and many more hive relocations, many more containers of honey!
Thank you for your blessing and kind words Darlene, they are greatly appreciated, Next to Blazing Saddles, the first Blues Brothers movie is one of the best movies ever made. Thanks for watching, and till the next one, God's peace. Mr. Ed
@@JeffHorchoff You are most welcome! You're very well spoken, soft spoken and doesn't use totally unnecessary profanity.I'm learning a lot about their wonderful inner workings.
And it's always nice to see your name in the comments Chelsea as well. The channel has been blessed and continues to be blessed as the subscribers continue to rise, thank you everyone! I'm happy to share the little knowledge of bees I know, but all the joy that is inside of me. God's peace. Mr. Ed
Jeff Horchoff l am wondering if you are still catching bees at the bee hive house? That place blows my mind!! I think one of these days you might see that old Dirt Rooster lurking about. 😁
That location is only productive during the swarm season, though I checked it last week just hoping to find a new hive, but nothing was there. God's peace Chelsea. Mr. Ed
You must bee up to something with all those nice words, are you feeling OK? Anyway, I'll go along with it and say thank you. God's peace brother. Mr. Ed
Oh. JUst take 2 bacon/shrimp sammiches and go see a doctor if you still feel bad. And if that doesn't do it I guess you better get gravy to start with just to be sure!
I think you should consider becoming a bee keeper, I watch my bees every single day for the very reason you state, it's just so cool. I post a new video every Friday morning, and I look forward to hearing from you on some of them. Thanks for watching. God's peace. Mr. Ed
when ever you look at those thumbs ups on your videos you can be sure that one of those on each of them are mine. i'd love to keep bees, ive been fascinated by them since i was a small child. sadly where I live it is not suitable so I just enjoy watching the videos you share :)
I thank Jesus for guiding me to your channel, Jeff, and the Dirt Rooster, too! You guys are a blessing. Thanks for your sharing your knowledge, and for your great and entertaining videos. You are a great ambassador for Jesus, and for beekeeping!
Thank you for all your kind words William, but the praise belongs to providence and God. I'm more than happy to be the instrument of delivery, and thank you for tuning in. Till next week. God's peace. Mr. Ed
The camera is a relatively inexpensive one, around $200.00, and it's a Sony cam corder, model HDR-CX455. For what I do, it fit's the bill pretty well, but I'm still looking for something a bit better. Thanks for watching. God's peace. Mr. Ed
Thank you for your blessing JJ, you never fail to give one, This wax will go back to our bees, I use the cappings from the honey comb for the wax, it's a bit better quality. God's peace. Mr. Ed

You can tell by Mr Eds smile that he is a really really nice guy. Great video. I am thinking about beekeeping but I think it is more work than I am willing to do.
I've been wearing that same smile now for 62 years, and I'm very fond of it myself. I wanted to suggest to you to find a bee club in your area and join it now. You do not need to have bees to belong to a club, just a love for them. You will meet some really great folks who can give you valuable information on keeping bee in the area you live and that is very important. Folks up north keep bees different from folks down south, food and climate have everything to do with it. Let me know how you progress goes. God's peace brother. Mr. Ed
It's always a better rescue if the comb can be given back to them, but often it is not the case. It's better in the long run for the bees to have different comb if the comb has been saturated in honey. Thanks for watching. God's peace. Mr. Ed
Mr Edd nice to see you again, it is always enjoyable and full of excitement experience with you especially when you locate the queen. I thank you very much God bless you. Amen
Sascha Thinius Unbelievable? No sir, belief is the key! By the grace of God, through his prayers, his labors are fruitful, and you and I are witnesses to his success, and can praise God, and give Him the glory... This channel’s content-and its subscribers-are inspiring! Hallelujah!
The credit for the blessing needs to be given to the One who sends them, I'm just trying to live in recognition of the grace. I am a blessed fella to bee able to serve in this function, I really love doing it. Thanks for watching. God's peace. Mr. Ed
Wow. the person who dropped that tree was very precise about where it was to go, and it missed two young trees, falling right between them (trimmed a few of their branches though). And then you opened it up masterfully! Oh I do love that laugh when you cage the queen! And she was a real beauty, big and caramel colored! Wow! Shame about their comb but you did them a great favor. It may have been Armageddon to them, but you saved them! Its beautiful to see the way our Lord blesses us when we are doing His work. Thank you sir, it's a joy to watch you!
You are way to nice with all the kind words you send in my direction, thank you. It's a pleasure for me to share my experiences and my joy to any who would care to tune in, and I'm very happy that you are one of them. God's peace Julie. Mr. Ed
I rejoice with you in every video, Mr. Ed! Your labors are blessed, and it excites me and inspires me to be a witness to your wrangling! Hallelujah! Another beautiful, big, healthy queen! Carry on, brother, in Jesus’ name!
I love the blessing, thank you Jennifer. It is a real joy for me to share all of my bee wrangling experiences.....good and bad. Till next week, God's peace. Mr. Ed
Well bless your heart Mr. Ed. I always get the feeling it bothers you to have to wrangle bees from a downed tree. It does me, knowing that the home front is being destroyed. But the good thing is now they can live and not die. Thanks once again for being you sir, and educating us on the world of beekeeping.
Hello Carolyn, yeah I check on Mr.Ed every Friday. He gets my weekend going. I got real worried about you though. I haven't heard from you in such a long time. Actually people that you may remember have been asking me about you. People from the DoDo. I don't go there to comment much anymore though. I really wish you would get on Facebook. We could talk everyday there, and share thoughts and ideas. Weve had some problems with Ivory girl. But I can't get into that here. We had to put Missy down in the summer, A coyote got ahold of her and messed her up real bad. Nearly killed Sharons heart. Please Carolyn look into Facebook. I looked all over for you there but couldn't find you. You're my longest friendship on the internet. Best friend as well. BTW thanks for the blessing. Hope to see you there.
Dammit Boy I apologize for the lack of communicating, but I’ve been dealing with pain... As for facebook? I’ll pray about it...I don’t have a good opinion about personal social media, and I do what I can to not get wrapped up in earthly matters...I will specifically pray about facebook, dearly beloved! You are in my prayers morning and evening!
It does not trouble me anymore to do a removal from a tree than from a structure, it's just unfortunate that the bees have to be disturbed, especially when they are doing just fine where they are. Regardless, when the bee have to go, I'm just happy I have the opportunity to rescue them. It' always my pleasure to share my experiences of wrangling bees and the joy I receive doing it. Till next Friday, God's peace my brother. Mr. Ed
I do not use "frozen" comb, it was in the freezer to kill any eggs that were in there, but the comb was ambient temperature when it was put into the bee box. Keep on asking and learning. God's peace. Mr. Ed
It is very interesting removing bees from tree. I have done many of them, and they do prove unique in the challenges they offer. God's peace Rick. Mr. Ed
You and the Rooster! That was a GOOD run, Son! Lots of firewood down there where it's warm. Lots of bees to go back with you and Gal Friday did a FINE job too. LOts of people don't believe Judgement day is coming but that don't change one thing. The GREAT bad day hasn't started but Gods judgement has and I'm glad of it. All the junk happening ought to be dealt with and will be. Gods Peace to you Pal and have a LARGE weekend!
Thank you for your blessing Lewie, and you are very correct in your comment, no one can escape judgement. The best advice I could offer anyone is to bee ready for it. God's peace brother. Mr. Ed
Trust me, there are a lot of heartaches when it comes to keeping bees, but my love for them to continue on, allows me to persevere in dark times. God's peace Nola. Mr. Ed
Thank you for your blessing Martin, it's the best perk I have for having a RUclips channel. I'm happy to share all the fun and excitement.God's peace. Mr. Ed
I attribute it all to a grace from God. How else can you fin one particular bee in the midst of 15,000 other bees? Thanks for watching. God's peace. Mr. Ed
Well, the girls have had an exciting day -- first their tree fell down, then it was cut open, then their entire colony was dismantled, and finally they were relocated. But they have their queen and they have the best chance of recovering.
Like I said, it was Armageddon day for the bees, they just didn't know it. Fortunately, there was someone there to help them out, and I was happy to do it. God's peace Kevin. Mr. Ed
Man, I do so love watching your videos. I’ve binge watched most of them since I discovered you recently. Such calm, cheerful and interesting content. You’ve also taught me a lot about bees, and encouraged me to look up/support my local beekeepers. Not to mention you’ve given me a severe craving for honey! Much love to you and yours. God bless :)
Thank you so much for your blessing and your many kind words. In truth, I'm just a guy who loves saving bees and sharing the experience. Now go get that honey! Looking forward to hearing from you again, and remember, I post a new video every Friday morning. Till next week, God's peace. Mr. Ed
Awesome video. I had this situation once up on an auction site. I always thought the dead tree wood chips mixed with the bee wax would make a cool candle.
Make sure you check out next Fridays video, the guy who taught me how to open logs will be in it working some real magic. He is a true tree cutting artist. Till next week, God's peace. Mr. Ed
Awesome Mr. Ed, every time I watch your videos it makes me feel amaze. I have 2 hives (apis cerana) last time it was 4 hives but the two of them just leave me, I don't know why Well, Mr.Ed goodbless you as always
Thank you so much for your blessing, and all the time you spend watching my bee wrangling adventures. Don't give up hope when you suffer set backs with your bees, that's just part of bee keeping......just not the fun part. God's peace. Mr. Ed
I'm delighted to hear you you had only good things to say about the video, thank you very much. This really was an incredible find, and if you'd like to see the full length version of the video showing the bees from the outside of the house to when they were released into their new bee box, click on the link below.

It's not a job, it's a passion. I am not paid for the services I render wrangling bees. I'm a retired fella living the dream, and I wish all will enjoy the same one day for themselves. Thanks for watching. God's peace. Mr. Ed
I've got a question that maybe someone here in the comments can help with. I want to get a couple of hives going for my garden, but I need to surround them with something that honeybees can pass through, but asian hornets cannot. The asian hornets around here have wiped out most of the hives in my area and we're lucky to see 4 or 5 honeybees throughout the summer. Maybe something like hardware cloth? Suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Wow, you really do have a unique situation. I am sorry, but I have nothing to offer as a solution. Come on folks, can anyone help out? I really hope there is a solution to this problem. Thanks for watching. God's peace. Mr. Ed

From Spain, thanks so much! God bless you for the wonderful job that you are doing, we know as well that bees are in danger and you save them all in your area, it's incredible to look all bees and the queens and their homes, I'm so happy to look them all going to a new location in a good place for them, looked some of the other videos and I liked so much! Thanks again for your work helping them, bees are really important, necessaries for the nature and we all must respect and take care of them, they are a very special present from God for humanity! ❤🏆😄👏🐝😇🌟👍🙇👋
Gracias por su bendición y sabiduría en sus palabras con respecto a las abejas. Publico estos videos para mostrarles cuán importantes son las abejas para nuestra propia supervivencia y por qué no deberíamos matarlos por ignorancia. He estado rescatando a las abejas para que no las destruyan innecesariamente desde hace más de 6 años, y espero seguir haciéndolo durante muchos años más. Gracias por mirar, y espero que veas más de mis aventuras de abejas / aventuras de abejas y me dejes saber qué piensas de ellas. La paz de dios Sr. Ed
I get so nervous watching tree felling! It's incredible to witness but so nerve wracking even though they know what they're doing! Excitement! I was nervous! LOL You could say I have a very healthy respect for falling trees! Were you hoping the tree would break open as it fell so you didn't have to cut it up and disturb them with more vibration and so it would be less work since you weren't giving them their comb in the hive setup?
Remind me never to ask you if you can cut a tree next to my house. I was hoping when the tree hit the ground it would just split open, after all, it really was rotten, but that never happened. I alway have every intention to give the bees their own comb, but I am always ready for the unexpected. Thanks for watching. God's peace. Mr. Ed
@Jeff Horchoff Mr Ed. Where can I find an explanation of what happened to you at the end of 'Look What Was Under Her Bed'? No one in the comments of the video asked either. Very odd. What's going on?
The explanation is simple, as I was holding the queen cage in the air and speaking, a bee stung me on the tip of my nose. As much as it hurt, it was funny as heck, and needed to be put in the video. Because there were so many comments, you just missed it, there were several folks that commented on it. I'm very happy to see you checking out more of my channel, I greatly appreciate it. Looking forward to hearing from you again, God's peace. Mr. Ed
I thought you were going to say the lovely mess was the Rooster, I would have just said the mess. Thank you for your blessing and for staying in touch. God's peace Glo. Mr. Ed
Out of the hundred plus removals I have done over the years, not once have the homeowners asked for the bees. Of course, they'd be welcome to them, but so far, none have wanted them. Many have gotten honey, but no bees. I do not charge to remove the bees, but I do ask for those that can afford it, to make a donation to the abbey to continue our bee rescue program. Thanks for watching. God's peace. Mr. Ed
@@JeffHorchoff Wow, I can not bee-live that know one would want a bee box,even if theirs no honey.They help poulente,make the flowers bloom.And your helping a declining bee population. Lol 🇨🇦❤🇺🇸
@@madmann5373 I know exactly what you are saying, still, most of the folks that i remove bee from their homes are very much afraid of them. God's peace. Mr. Ed
Thanks so much for not only watching the video, but reading the description. I know many do, it's just great to hear that it is read. Till next Friday, God's peace. Mr. Ed

The only way to deal with AFB is to burn everything, it's the only way to stop the spread of the spores. Fortunately, I have never experienced it in any of our yards. Thanks for watching. God's peace. Mr. Ed
I used it, I fed our bees and then melted it down. Didn't you see it in the ice chests? No way am I going to discard something that valuable. God's peace brother. Mr. Ed
Drew, where have you been, I hope all is well with you. It's great to hear from you again, and thank you for watching, the shares, and the thumbs up. God's peace brother. Mr. Ed
Another wrangle, well done Mr. Ed. You’ve got skills with that saw! Were you a log artist before a beekeeper? LOL! Glad it all worked out and hopefully the colony is doing well now. First thing I also noticed was how little brood was inside the hive and with its size I’m guessing it was near time for a split and swarm. Looking forward to an update and keep up the great work! Good Bless!
Thank you so much for the blessing, I'll take all that are sent my way. Bee keepers have to wear many hats, and those that wrangle bees have to wear many more hats, chainsaw handling is one of those hats. I think that hive had recently, in the past 3 or 4 weeks, swarmed judging by the lack of both new and old brood in the comb. The good news is that they are doing very well now, lets just hope they can make it through the winter.....we shall see. God's peace brother. Mr. Ed
Another very good day of bee wrangling. I'm so blessed to bee able to rescue bees and share the experience. Thank you so much for following along. God's peace. Mr. Ed
And hello from the deep south of Louisiana. Thank you so much for watching, and letting me know where you are watching from. I post a new video every Friday morning, around mid day for you, and I look forward to hearing from you on some. God's peace. Mr. Ed
Because the tree was dead, and it had been dying for more than 4 years, it was constantly dropping limbs from it. The homeowners had a day care business in their home and the children often would play in the yard. Because there was no telling when the tree would fall on it's own accord due to it's rotten state, they erred on the safety of the children, not the bees as they should, and dropped the tree. Thanks for watching. God's peace. Mr.Ed
Wonder why you have bees down there ?? Up here in Pa There are no feral bees I consider my self lucky to see a bee any more and i plant lots of stuff for them Even the #s of bumble bees have been in a steady decline !! My blue basil use to be covered and now only a few . Could you please send a few this way !!
It is so sad to hear how folks in some parts of our country see so few honey bees, you are one of many that have relaid that story to me. I truly hope things turn around, and bees become abundant again by you. Thanks for watching. God's peace. Mr. Ed
When a tree that has bees inside of it falls, very often the comb, which is attached to the inside of the trunk, is violently jarred when the trunk hits the ground. This ruptures the honey cells which begin leaking honey and eventually covers the comb thus making the comb "wet'" and yes, like rain. Thanks for watching, and I hope you will check out more of my bee wrangling/ bee rescues adventures and let me know what you think of them. By the way, I post a new video every Friday morning, and I look forward to hearing from you again soon. God's peace. Mr. Ed
Just out of curiosity and this maybe a very dumb question but on all the wild bees you rescue are you able to utilise any of the honey or bees wax from the hives?
On most of the removals, both the honey and the wax are given back to the bees as they need it. However, on this removal, because the comb was covered in honey and there were so many hive beetles on the comb, none of it was given to the bees as the beetle larva, when hatched, would have over run the colony and they would have left. I did give the homeowners a lot of the honey, and the rest was brought back to the abbey and given to the abbey bees to feast on. When they were finished with it, the wax was melted down to be used again. I post these videos, to show just how important bees are to our very survival, and why we should not just kill them out of ignorance. I have been rescuing bees from being needlessly destroyed for over 6 years now, and hope to continue to do so for many more years to come. Thanks for watching, and I hope you will check out more of my bee wrangling/ bee rescues adventures and let me know what you think of them. By the way, I post a new video every Friday morning. God's peace. Mr. Ed
@@JeffHorchoff Thank you for answering my question, after watching your videos I always wondered what happens to all the honey from your rescues, glad to know some of it can go back to the bees (if not contaminated with beetle larva of course) And I must say what an extra special treat for the homeowners to have received some of the wild honey. You perform a fantastic service Mr Ed long may it continue :)
I hope it continues for a long time and that I'm able to share my experiences to help show the importance of the lowly honey bees. Till the next time Jo, God's peace. Mr. Ed
Good Job Jeff!!! How are they doing now? My removal from trees have never been very successful surviving unless I did a forced abscond. Thanks again for the great videos.
These bees are doing very well. Any time bees are forcibly evicted and relocated, it is very stressful for them as you well know. Each removal has to have it's own consideration as to the housing of them as this will greatly effect their decision to stay or perish for what ever reason. Time and experience will help choosing the considerations. I will say this, I rely heavily on prayers, and I attribute moat of my successes to it. Thanks for watching. God's peace. Mr. Ed
What made you want to do this? I'm curious 😁 I absolutely love your videos and I'm definitely a fan 😁💖 I am always checking out your videos and always checking if you've uploaded a video 😁👍🏻
What makes me wrangle bees is my complete fascination by them. They are truly a wonder of the world, and as such, deserve attention and protection, I'm just trying to do my part. In case you are not aware, I post a new video every Friday morning. I'm looking forward to hearing from you again. Thanks for your support and for watching. God's peace. Mr. Ed
Could you have dried out the honeycomb or have the tree cutter lower the tree with as little disturbance as possible. I would be traumatized after a fall like that. Thank You Loader.
The tree was so rotten, there was no safe way of bringing the tree down to lessen the trama to the bees other than by just cutting it. My presence there was the best possibility of these bees surviving. God's peace. Mr. Ed
Thank you Cheryl for your blessing, I need all of them I can get. I'm so happy you are liking and learning from the videos, next thing you are going to bee telling me is you want to become a bee keeper.....I can hardly wait for that day. God's peace. Mr. Ed

Mr. Ed
The bees were NOT living in a wet hive. When I use the term "wet" it refers to comb that is covered in honey that has leaked onto the comb, in this case due to the fact that the the tree hit the ground at about 400 MPH, and rupturing the honey cells.The danger of this is the hive beetle eggs that are present in the hive will emerge in mass and overrun the colony causing the bee in many cases to abscond. To avoid that from happening, I do not place any of the comb into the new box. Much of the honey was saved, and given back to the bees, but through feeding from a jar. Thanks for watching and commenting. God's peace. Mr. Ed
Why is it I find this fascinating when I'm terrified of anything that fly's stings and bites. Love watching this
I can't answer your question, but I greatly appreciate you going out on the limb to watch my adventures. God's peace Terri.

This is 1 of the many things I like about you Mr Ed. you don't just remove the combs and that's it like quite a few bee youtubers do (infact I unsub'd to a few for only doing that) .You vacuum them to transport, you help the Abbey by placing the hives there. To quote a line from the blues brothers " we're on a mission from God" you and the bees. God Bless and many more hive relocations, many more containers of honey!

And it's always nice to see your name in the comments Chelsea as well. The channel has been blessed and continues to be blessed as the subscribers continue to rise, thank you everyone! I'm happy to share the little knowledge of bees I know, but all the joy that is inside of me. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Jeff Horchoff l am wondering if you are still catching bees at the bee hive house? That place blows my mind!! I think one of these days you might see that old Dirt Rooster lurking about. 😁
That location is only productive during the swarm season, though I checked it last week just hoping to find a new hive, but nothing was there. God's peace Chelsea.
Mr. Ed
Thank you for caring about their removal so much! They are living things just like the rest of us.
It is my joy to save the bees, and then it's my pleasure to share the experience. Thank you for following along. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
I love the march and I also love when you scoop them up by the hadfuls.
Two of my most favorite aspects of bee wrangling also. Thanks for watching. God's peace Samantha.
Mr. Ed
High skill level there. Hardly a saw mark on the comb and all the bees survived. Nice work master of the bees.
You must bee up to something with all those nice words, are you feeling OK? Anyway, I'll go along with it and say thank you. God's peace brother. Mr. Ed
I'm wondering if it's bacon withdrawals or maybe just laying back for a big one. Either way it'll be a good one!
Are you feverish or just grinning a lot??
My bad. I didn't have my glasses on. I thought I was watching Okie Rob.
Oh. JUst take 2 bacon/shrimp sammiches and go see a doctor if you still feel bad. And if that doesn't do it I guess you better get gravy to start with just to be sure!
it is very hypnotic watching bees, nice to see your giving them not only a new home but a good one where they will be looked after :)
I think you should consider becoming a bee keeper, I watch my bees every single day for the very reason you state, it's just so cool. I post a new video every Friday morning, and I look forward to hearing from you on some of them. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
when ever you look at those thumbs ups on your videos you can be sure that one of those on each of them are mine. i'd love to keep bees, ive been fascinated by them since i was a small child. sadly where I live it is not suitable so I just enjoy watching the videos you share :)
@@dchubad Then keep on watching, and hitting that thumbs up, I really appreciate it. Till next Friday, God's peace. Mr. Ed
I thank Jesus for guiding me to your channel, Jeff, and the Dirt Rooster, too! You guys are a blessing. Thanks for your sharing your knowledge, and for your great and entertaining videos. You are a great ambassador for Jesus, and for beekeeping!
Thank you for all your kind words William, but the praise belongs to providence and God. I'm more than happy to be the instrument of delivery, and thank you for tuning in. Till next week. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
That camera is impressive. That kind of clarity with how far you zoomed in on that tree in the beginning must cost a pretty penny.
The camera is a relatively inexpensive one, around $200.00, and it's a Sony cam corder, model HDR-CX455. For what I do, it fit's the bill pretty well, but I'm still looking for something a bit better. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Great job Jeff. I am glad that you are keeping the wax from that tree. It will make a lot of candles for the Abbey. God bless you Jeff.
Thank you for your blessing JJ, you never fail to give one, This wax will go back to our bees, I use the cappings from the honey comb for the wax, it's a bit better quality. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
You have a lovely personality and a beautiful smile!🐝
Thank you for your kind words. In truth, I'm just a guy who loves saving bees and sharing the experience. Thanks for watching, and I hope you will check out more of my bee wrangling/ bee rescues adventures and let me know what you think of them. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
You can tell by Mr Eds smile that he is a really really nice guy. Great video. I am thinking about beekeeping but I think it is more work than I am willing to do.
I've been wearing that same smile now for 62 years, and I'm very fond of it myself. I wanted to suggest to you to find a bee club in your area and join it now. You do not need to have bees to belong to a club, just a love for them. You will meet some really great folks who can give you valuable information on keeping bee in the area you live and that is very important. Folks up north keep bees different from folks down south, food and climate have everything to do with it. Let me know how you progress goes. God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
I would like to see a whole hive get rescued without losing comb but nice job rescuing the queen and her workers Jeff
It's always a better rescue if the comb can be given back to them, but often it is not the case. It's better in the long run for the bees to have different comb if the comb has been saturated in honey. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Mr Edd nice to see you again, it is always enjoyable and full of excitement experience with you especially when you locate the queen. I thank you very much God bless you. Amen
Thank you for your blessing and kind words Mohammed. I am looking forward to hearing from you next week as well. God's peace my brother. Mr. Ed
unbelivable, he always finds the queen!
Sascha Thinius Unbelievable? No sir, belief is the key! By the grace of God, through his prayers, his labors are fruitful, and you and I are witnesses to his success, and can praise God, and give Him the glory...
This channel’s content-and its subscribers-are inspiring! Hallelujah!
I attribute it all to grace......and practice. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Handled that chainsaw like a lumberjack. God bless Mr. Ed.
I'll take the blessing and the compliment, thanks Mike. Till the next time, God's peace.
Mr. Ed
How lovely to hear you give God the glory! You are doing such a service to this world. Thank you!
The credit for the blessing needs to be given to the One who sends them, I'm just trying to live in recognition of the grace. I am a blessed fella to bee able to serve in this function, I really love doing it. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Wow. the person who dropped that tree was very precise about where it was to go, and it missed two young trees, falling right between them (trimmed a few of their branches though). And then you opened it up masterfully! Oh I do love that laugh when you cage the queen! And she was a real beauty, big and caramel colored! Wow! Shame about their comb but you did them a great favor. It may have been Armageddon to them, but you saved them! Its beautiful to see the way our Lord blesses us when we are doing His work. Thank you sir, it's a joy to watch you!
You are way to nice with all the kind words you send in my direction, thank you. It's a pleasure for me to share my experiences and my joy to any who would care to tune in, and I'm very happy that you are one of them. God's peace Julie.
Mr. Ed
Mr. Ed, thank you. I see you crossed the 50k mark on your subscribers, so congratulations. That's an awesome accomplishment!
I rejoice with you in every video, Mr. Ed! Your labors are blessed, and it excites me and inspires me to be a witness to your wrangling! Hallelujah! Another beautiful, big, healthy queen! Carry on, brother, in Jesus’ name!
I go forth every day with the hope of Christ at my side and in my heart, I'm delighted that you can see that. God's peace Carolyn.
Mr. Ed
God bless you sir...you are a noble man in protecting and nurturing these wonderful creatures.
Thank you for your blessing and kind words Bert. Thanks also for watching and commenting. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Thank you Jesus...amen. Thanks Jeff and Sheila.
AMEN! Our pleasure. Thanks for watching Cheryl. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
These videos never fail to cheer me up!
So glad to bring cheer to this world. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
I didn't know I needed this until today! The world needs more people like you!
So kind of you to say that, thank you, and thanks for watching and leaving your comment. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
I always enjoy watching. Thanks.
You are very welcome, and thank you for taking the time to follow along and comment. Till the next one, God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Much love and respect as usual!!
Thank you so much for your kind words and support. God's peace Okbu.
Mr. Ed
Well Mr. Ed, again, you have made a wonderful recovery! Thanks for sharing this great adventure!
God Bless you kind Sir!
You are truly a bee whisper!
I love the blessing, thank you Jennifer. It is a real joy for me to share all of my bee wrangling experiences.....good and bad. Till next week, God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Well bless your heart Mr. Ed. I always get the feeling it bothers you to have to wrangle bees from a downed tree. It does me, knowing that the home front is being destroyed. But the good thing is now they can live and not die. Thanks once again for being you sir, and educating us on the world of beekeeping.
Dammit Boy So nice to see you here. God bless you and your family!
Hello Carolyn, yeah I check on Mr.Ed every Friday. He gets my weekend going. I got real worried about you though. I haven't heard from you in such a long time. Actually people that you may remember have been asking me about you. People from the DoDo. I don't go there to comment much anymore though. I really wish you would get on Facebook. We could talk everyday there, and share thoughts and ideas. Weve had some problems with Ivory girl. But I can't get into that here. We had to put Missy down in the summer, A coyote got ahold of her and messed her up real bad. Nearly killed Sharons heart. Please Carolyn look into Facebook. I looked all over for you there but couldn't find you. You're my longest friendship on the internet. Best friend as well. BTW thanks for the blessing. Hope to see you there.
Dammit Boy I apologize for the lack of communicating, but I’ve been dealing with pain...
As for facebook? I’ll pray about it...I don’t have a good opinion about personal social media, and I do what I can to not get wrapped up in earthly matters...I will specifically pray about facebook, dearly beloved! You are in my prayers morning and evening!
It does not trouble me anymore to do a removal from a tree than from a structure, it's just unfortunate that the bees have to be disturbed, especially when they are doing just fine where they are. Regardless, when the bee have to go, I'm just happy I have the opportunity to rescue them. It' always my pleasure to share my experiences of wrangling bees and the joy I receive doing it. Till next Friday, God's peace my brother.
Mr. Ed
That was a very informative description of the video. I didn't know you use frozen comb. I keep learning so much from you!
I do not use "frozen" comb, it was in the freezer to kill any eggs that were in there, but the comb was ambient temperature when it was put into the bee box. Keep on asking and learning. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
This was one of the more interesting bee removal videos I seen. Pretty cool.
It is very interesting removing bees from tree. I have done many of them, and they do prove unique in the challenges they offer. God's peace Rick.
Mr. Ed
You and the Rooster! That was a GOOD run, Son! Lots of firewood down there where it's warm. Lots of bees to go back with you and Gal Friday did a FINE job too. LOts of people don't believe Judgement day is coming but that don't change one thing. The GREAT bad day hasn't started but Gods judgement has and I'm glad of it. All the junk happening ought to be dealt with and will be. Gods Peace to you Pal and have a LARGE weekend!
Thank you for your blessing Lewie, and you are very correct in your comment, no one can escape judgement. The best advice I could offer anyone is to bee ready for it. God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
Likewise, Brother!
BRILLIANT JOB MR JEFF, MICK FROM UK.
Thanks Mick, I appreciate you taking the time to watch. Till the next one, God's peace.
Mr. Ed
It’s so sad to see this Mr Ed but your there to take of them
Trust me, there are a lot of heartaches when it comes to keeping bees, but my love for them to continue on, allows me to persevere in dark times. God's peace Nola.
Mr. Ed
Very Good video ,Jeff! Glad the bees are doing well. Fun seeing Rooster at the end. God bless you Mr. Ed!
Thank you for your blessing Martin, it's the best perk I have for having a RUclips channel. I'm happy to share all the fun and excitement.God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Always a good job Mr Ed! If you keep them coming I’ll keep on watching!
Will do sir, God's peace.
Mr. Ed
i find is amazing that you can find the queen in all of those bees.
I attribute it all to a grace from God. How else can you fin one particular bee in the midst of 15,000 other bees? Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
That's a huge queen, congrats!
No doubt, she's a beaut! Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Well, the girls have had an exciting day -- first their tree fell down, then it was cut open, then their entire colony was dismantled, and finally they were relocated.
But they have their queen and they have the best chance of recovering.
Like I said, it was Armageddon day for the bees, they just didn't know it. Fortunately, there was someone there to help them out, and I was happy to do it. God's peace Kevin.
Mr. Ed
Man, I do so love watching your videos. I’ve binge watched most of them since I discovered you recently. Such calm, cheerful and interesting content. You’ve also taught me a lot about bees, and encouraged me to look up/support my local beekeepers. Not to mention you’ve given me a severe craving for honey!
Much love to you and yours. God bless :)
Thank you so much for your blessing and your many kind words. In truth, I'm just a guy who loves saving bees and sharing the experience. Now go get that honey! Looking forward to hearing from you again, and remember, I post a new video every Friday morning. Till next week, God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Awesome video. I had this situation once up on an auction site. I always thought the dead tree wood chips mixed with the bee wax would make a cool candle.
Glad you like the video, I'll be posting for the next few Fridays tree removals, so stay tuned. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Loved that part of the tree opening. Absolutely fantastic footage!
Make sure you check out next Fridays video, the guy who taught me how to open logs will be in it working some real magic. He is a true tree cutting artist. Till next week, God's peace.
Mr. Ed
As always, you make it look easy! :) Good work!
Thanks Zack, just another great day of wrangling bees. One day you are coming with me. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Awesome Mr. Ed, every time I watch your videos it makes me feel amaze. I have 2 hives (apis cerana) last time it was 4 hives but the two of them just leave me, I don't know why
Well, Mr.Ed goodbless you as always
Thank you so much for your blessing, and all the time you spend watching my bee wrangling adventures. Don't give up hope when you suffer set backs with your bees, that's just part of bee keeping......just not the fun part. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Thank you Mr. Ed
nice job mr ed and god bless u
Thank you for your blessing Terry, and I return it to you. Have you got color on the trees yet? God's peace.
Mr. Ed
yes we do have color
You are so awesome God bless you bro
Thank you for your blessing, kind words, and for watching. Till the next time, God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Not sure what Watch but this was educational and wholesome. Thanks
I'm delighted to hear you you had only good things to say about the video, thank you very much. This really was an incredible find, and if you'd like to see the full length version of the video showing the bees from the outside of the house to when they were released into their new bee box, click on the link below. Also, I post a new video every Friday concerning rescuing and relocating bees from structures. I have been doing this for over 6 years, and hope to continue for many more to come. Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment. Till next time, God's peace. Mr. Ed

Wow it feel I am so glad that you helped them have a Blessed day
You and me both. Thank you for your blessing and for watching. God's peace Breana.
Mr. Ed
God bless you
Thank you so very much for your blessing, it is greatly appreciated. I post these videos, to show just how important bees are to our very survival, and why we should not just kill them out of ignorance. I have been rescuing bees from being needlessly destroyed for over 6 years now, and hope to continue to do so for many more years to come. Thanks for watching, and I hope you will check out more of my bee wrangling/ bee rescues adventures and let me know what you think of them. By the way, I post a new video every Friday morning, and I look forward to hearing from you again soon. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
I was reading some of the comments, and I think you should really get a signed Dirt Rooster portrait for the Honey Hut. It just seems so right.
Could you ask him for me, he's a bit touchy about me whooping up on him so bad with the swarm catching competition.God's peace Linda. Mr. Ed
Thanks !!
My pleasure, God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
Such a satisfying and incredible job you have sir! Amazing
It's not a job, it's a passion. I am not paid for the services I render wrangling bees. I'm a retired fella living the dream, and I wish all will enjoy the same one day for themselves. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
I've got a question that maybe someone here in the comments can help with. I want to get a couple of hives going for my garden, but I need to surround them with something that honeybees can pass through, but asian hornets cannot. The asian hornets around here have wiped out most of the hives in my area and we're lucky to see 4 or 5 honeybees throughout the summer. Maybe something like hardware cloth? Suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Wow, you really do have a unique situation. I am sorry, but I have nothing to offer as a solution. Come on folks, can anyone help out? I really hope there is a solution to this problem. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Excellent as always Mr. Ed- blessings from the panhandle.
I was praying for you guys all week, and I'm hoping you are well. Give me a call when you get a chance. God's peace Mick.
Mr. Ed
Precision and careful bee removal
I do love wrangling bees. Thank you for the compliment and for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Another great video, thanks for showing god bless you and the bees
Thank you for your blessing Richard, it's the best perk I have for having a RUclips channel. I'm happy to share all the fun and excitement. Till next week, God's peace.
Mr. Ed
thank you Me Ed
It is my pleasure to share my wrangling experiences, thank you for following along. I post a new video every Friday morning, and I hope to hear from you again. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
From Spain, thanks so much! God bless you for the wonderful job that you are doing, we know as well that bees are in danger and you save them all in your area, it's incredible to look all bees and the queens and their homes, I'm so happy to look them all going to a new location in a good place for them, looked some of the other videos and I liked so much! Thanks again for your work helping them, bees are really important, necessaries for the nature and we all must respect and take care of them, they are a very special present from God for humanity! ❤🏆😄👏🐝😇🌟👍🙇👋
Gracias por su bendición y sabiduría en sus palabras con respecto a las abejas. Publico estos videos para mostrarles cuán importantes son las abejas para nuestra propia supervivencia y por qué no deberíamos matarlos por ignorancia. He estado rescatando a las abejas para que no las destruyan innecesariamente desde hace más de 6 años, y espero seguir haciéndolo durante muchos años más. Gracias por mirar, y espero que veas más de mis aventuras de abejas / aventuras de abejas y me dejes saber qué piensas de ellas. La paz de dios
Sr. Ed
I get so nervous watching tree felling! It's incredible to witness but so nerve wracking even though they know what they're doing! Excitement! I was nervous! LOL You could say I have a very healthy respect for falling trees!
Were you hoping the tree would break open as it fell so you didn't have to cut it up and disturb them with more vibration and so it would be less work since you weren't giving them their comb in the hive setup?
Remind me never to ask you if you can cut a tree next to my house. I was hoping when the tree hit the ground it would just split open, after all, it really was rotten, but that never happened. I alway have every intention to give the bees their own comb, but I am always ready for the unexpected. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
@@JeffHorchoff No, I am absolutely not the person to ask to cut any tree! LOL
@Jeff Horchoff Mr Ed. Where can I find an explanation of what happened to you at the end of 'Look What Was Under Her Bed'? No one in the comments of the video asked either. Very odd. What's going on?
The explanation is simple, as I was holding the queen cage in the air and speaking, a bee stung me on the tip of my nose. As much as it hurt, it was funny as heck, and needed to be put in the video. Because there were so many comments, you just missed it, there were several folks that commented on it. I'm very happy to see you checking out more of my channel, I greatly appreciate it. Looking forward to hearing from you again, God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Nothing lightens me up like Mr Ed's smile
You are to kind, thank you, and thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
That was so interesting, thanks Mr. Ed.
My pleasure, it's always a joy for me to share my bee wrangling experiences, and I'm delighted that you follow along. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
another job well done and a lovely mess of bees-- many blessings...Glo
I thought you were going to say the lovely mess was the Rooster, I would have just said the mess. Thank you for your blessing and for staying in touch. God's peace Glo.
Mr. Ed
Did the tree fall on the well?
No, it did not. The fella did a very good job laying the tree down. I'm just glad I did not have to do it. Thanks for watching. God's peace. Mr. Ed
Can the home owners keep the hive,make a donation to your abby?
Out of the hundred plus removals I have done over the years, not once have the homeowners asked for the bees. Of course, they'd be welcome to them, but so far, none have wanted them. Many have gotten honey, but no bees. I do not charge to remove the bees, but I do ask for those that can afford it, to make a donation to the abbey to continue our bee rescue program. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
@@JeffHorchoff Wow, I can
not bee-live that know one
would want a bee box,even if theirs no honey.They help poulente,make the flowers
bloom.And your helping a declining bee population.
Lol 🇨🇦❤🇺🇸
@@madmann5373 I know exactly what you are saying, still, most of the folks that i remove bee from their homes are very much afraid of them. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
That is a big, beautiful queen. Great rescue. 😎🐝🐝🐝
I love those big girls, such a sight to bee hold. God's peace Gary.
Mr. Ed
once again great video and I'm so glad to read in the description that this hive is doing so well! :)
Thanks so much for not only watching the video, but reading the description. I know many do, it's just great to hear that it is read. Till next Friday, God's peace.
Mr. Ed
About how many bees were in that hive, even a guess of how many?
There were easily 15,000 bees, almost 10 pounds of them in this hive. I post these videos, to show just how important bees are to our very survival, and why we should not just kill them out of ignorance. I have been rescuing bees from being needlessly destroyed for over 6 years now, and hope to continue to do so for many more years to come.

Mr. Ed
it is good to see a man acknowledge God and His sovereignty
I agree, when ever I hear someone speaking the praises of God, my heart leaps with joy. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
How do you deal with American Foul Brood disease in your hives?
The only way to deal with AFB is to burn everything, it's the only way to stop the spread of the spores. Fortunately, I have never experienced it in any of our yards. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
I am glad you didn't get stung
I did. I removed my veil for 1 second, got stung in the face, and promptly put the hood back on. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
I wonder if while 'excavating' the bees that have gone away or ones that haven't BEEn sucked up will die or somehow manage to find their hive again ?🤔
Because I left the box on site for 3 more days, all the bees found their way home. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Why would you not use the wax from inside the tree? You mentioned HB were seen... HBM
I used it, I fed our bees and then melted it down. Didn't you see it in the ice chests? No way am I going to discard something that valuable. God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
Got ya! I did see the coolers just thought you were cleaning it up for the owner. Thank you so much for your time explaining and understanding. HBM
great job jeff thumbs up and shared
Drew, where have you been, I hope all is well with you. It's great to hear from you again, and thank you for watching, the shares, and the thumbs up. God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
all good been busy working and doing new videos trying to get my channel growing as well lol
Just did my part, liked, subscribed, and hit the bell. Good job brother. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Another wrangle, well done Mr. Ed. You’ve got skills with that saw! Were you a log artist before a beekeeper? LOL! Glad it all worked out and hopefully the colony is doing well now. First thing I also noticed was how little brood was inside the hive and with its size I’m guessing it was near time for a split and swarm. Looking forward to an update and keep up the great work! Good Bless!
Thank you so much for the blessing, I'll take all that are sent my way. Bee keepers have to wear many hats, and those that wrangle bees have to wear many more hats, chainsaw handling is one of those hats. I think that hive had recently, in the past 3 or 4 weeks, swarmed judging by the lack of both new and old brood in the comb. The good news is that they are doing very well now, lets just hope they can make it through the winter.....we shall see. God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
Awesome rescue!
Another very good day of bee wrangling. I'm so blessed to bee able to rescue bees and share the experience. Thank you so much for following along. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Thank you Jesus amen
That about says it all! Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Hi from London🇬🇧
And hello from the deep south of Louisiana. Thank you so much for watching, and letting me know where you are watching from. I post a new video every Friday morning, around mid day for you, and I look forward to hearing from you on some. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Jeff Horchoff it’s lovely to hear from you. Thank you for letting me when your next video will be up, I shall be watching! xx
Of course I'm going to tell you when my next video will be posted, I'd love for you to watch and comment on it. Till then, God's peace. Mr. Ed
What i dont get is why someone would pull down a tree knowing theres bees making a home in it,what harm were they doing if the tree was dead anyway?
Because the tree was dead, and it had been dying for more than 4 years, it was constantly dropping limbs from it. The homeowners had a day care business in their home and the children often would play in the yard. Because there was no telling when the tree would fall on it's own accord due to it's rotten state, they erred on the safety of the children, not the bees as they should, and dropped the tree. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr.Ed
Nice chainsaw work. Glad you were able to save the hive.
You know for yourself, bee keepers wear MANY different hats. The bees are well, and I am grateful. God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
Wonder why you have bees down there ?? Up here in Pa There are no feral bees I consider my self lucky to see a bee any more and i plant lots of stuff for them Even the #s of bumble bees have been in a steady decline !! My blue basil use to be covered and now only a few . Could you please send a few this way !!
It is so sad to hear how folks in some parts of our country see so few honey bees, you are one of many that have relaid that story to me. I truly hope things turn around, and bees become abundant again by you. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Wet like from rain ?
When a tree that has bees inside of it falls, very often the comb, which is attached to the inside of the trunk, is violently jarred when the trunk hits the ground. This ruptures the honey cells which begin leaking honey and eventually covers the comb thus making the comb "wet'" and yes, like rain. Thanks for watching, and I hope you will check out more of my bee wrangling/ bee rescues adventures and let me know what you think of them. By the way, I post a new video every Friday morning, and I look forward to hearing from you again soon. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Just out of curiosity and this maybe a very dumb question but on all the wild bees you rescue are you able to utilise any of the honey or bees wax from the hives?
On most of the removals, both the honey and the wax are given back to the bees as they need it. However, on this removal, because the comb was covered in honey and there were so many hive beetles on the comb, none of it was given to the bees as the beetle larva, when hatched, would have over run the colony and they would have left. I did give the homeowners a lot of the honey, and the rest was brought back to the abbey and given to the abbey bees to feast on. When they were finished with it, the wax was melted down to be used again. I post these videos, to show just how important bees are to our very survival, and why we should not just kill them out of ignorance. I have been rescuing bees from being needlessly destroyed for over 6 years now, and hope to continue to do so for many more years to come. Thanks for watching, and I hope you will check out more of my bee wrangling/ bee rescues adventures and let me know what you think of them. By the way, I post a new video every Friday morning. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
@@JeffHorchoff Thank you for answering my question, after watching your videos I always wondered what happens to all the honey from your rescues, glad to know some of it can go back to the bees (if not contaminated with beetle larva of course) And I must say what an extra special treat for the homeowners to have received some of the wild honey. You perform a fantastic service Mr Ed long may it continue :)
I hope it continues for a long time and that I'm able to share my experiences to help show the importance of the lowly honey bees. Till the next time Jo, God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Good Job Jeff!!! How are they doing now? My removal from trees have never been very successful surviving unless I did a forced abscond. Thanks again for the great videos.
These bees are doing very well. Any time bees are forcibly evicted and relocated, it is very stressful for them as you well know. Each removal has to have it's own consideration as to the housing of them as this will greatly effect their decision to stay or perish for what ever reason. Time and experience will help choosing the considerations. I will say this, I rely heavily on prayers, and I attribute moat of my successes to it. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
AMEN!
I do love rescuing bees, finding the queen, and giving praise to God. God's peace always.
Mr. Ed
your amazing,,,,,,,thank you jesus,,,
Just another day of bee wrangling......a good one, and of course an AMEN to end it. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Bravo 👏 mr Éd 😉
Another great day of bee wrangling, I'm happy to share, and happy you watched. Till next week, God's peace.
Mr. Ed
But at 5:01 it was the queen? or I saw it wrongly? :)
I'm sure the queen was in there somewhere, but I never saw her. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
God bless you Mr Ed you are a star 🐝
Thank you for the blessing, I love it, but I'm no star, just a guy who loves wrangling bees and sharing the joy of it. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
What made you want to do this? I'm curious 😁 I absolutely love your videos and I'm definitely a fan 😁💖 I am always checking out your videos and always checking if you've uploaded a video 😁👍🏻
What makes me wrangle bees is my complete fascination by them. They are truly a wonder of the world, and as such, deserve attention and protection, I'm just trying to do my part. In case you are not aware, I post a new video every Friday morning. I'm looking forward to hearing from you again. Thanks for your support and for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Could you have dried out the honeycomb or have the tree cutter lower the tree with as little disturbance as possible. I would be traumatized after a fall like that. Thank You Loader.
The tree was so rotten, there was no safe way of bringing the tree down to lessen the trama to the bees other than by just cutting it. My presence there was the best possibility of these bees surviving. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
AND the bees are getting better taste in music too, Pal!
They gave me the thumbs up when I asked if I should use it in the video. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Smart bees!
Love the videos and I am learning as well. Thanks, Mr. Ed and God bless.
Thank you Cheryl for your blessing, I need all of them I can get. I'm so happy you are liking and learning from the videos, next thing you are going to bee telling me is you want to become a bee keeper.....I can hardly wait for that day. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Very interesting watching these videos. My friend started keeping a year or two back and does well with it. Seem his products on IG.
Dude, you are pretty freakin awesome.
Thank you for your kind words and your support for the effort I make to save bees. I post these videos, to show just how important bees are to our very survival, and why we should not just kill them out of ignorance. I have been rescuing bees from being needlessly destroyed for over 6 years now, and hope to continue to do so for many more years to come. Thanks for watching, and I hope you will check out more of my bee wrangling/ bee rescues adventures and let me know what you think of them. I post a new video every Friday morning. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Jesus directly blessed you with finding that queen !
There is no doubt about that, that's why I give thanks. God's peace Michael.
Mr. Ed
The bees were living in a soaking wet hive? Seems kinda odd. Did you get to save any of the honey?
The bees were NOT living in a wet hive. When I use the term "wet" it refers to comb that is covered in honey that has leaked onto the comb, in this case due to the fact that the the tree hit the ground at about 400 MPH, and rupturing the honey cells.The danger of this is the hive beetle eggs that are present in the hive will emerge in mass and overrun the colony causing the bee in many cases to abscond. To avoid that from happening, I do not place any of the comb into the new box. Much of the honey was saved, and given back to the bees, but through feeding from a jar. Thanks for watching and commenting. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Thanks for the response, and clearing up my confusion! Glad to hear the bees got to enjoy their honey :)
This video made me want some honey!
I can understand that, there was a lot of dripping honey in this one. Thanks for watching. God's peace Harry.
