Varroa mites are the latest finding in the plight of our agricultural (and hobby) European Honeybees. The Varroa Destructor is known to be a vector (carrier for diseases) for several viruses, including (but NOT limited to:) SacBrood Deformed Wing Virus (DWV) Black Queen Cell Virus (BQCV) Nosema Apis Chronic Bee Paralysis Virus (CBPV) Lake Sinai […] 
The homeowner noticed bees entering and exiting from the shed in the back yard the week before. Since we were still several weeks prior to our swarm season – I suspected the bees * may * have been there a bit longer than the homeowner was aware of. A nice queen was found, the bees […]
These bees have been in the soffit for a while. The homeowner bought the house recently, and needs to do some work – that the bees were preventing. After a successful removal – the bees were re-homed to a Harmony Hollow Apiary outyard – and are doing well. Enjoy! Enjoy this quick video of assembling frames for honey production. Foundation will be added to the frames just prior to putting them on the hives (to keep the foundation clean until it’s time for the bees to draw comb). Enjoy!

A swarm arrived at this young lady’s home the night before. Brianna was excited to learn about the bees, and had never experienced a swarm like this – she insisted on bravely scooping the bees […] This bee removal was from a tree that had fallen in a golf course in a storm last week. If you like chainsaws.. look at the video. I love making the sawdust fly. 😉 The rest of the tree was already cleared away – but the course maintenance crew wanted to make sure the colony […] 
The City of Allen owns a golf course – and it was reported by a patron that honeybees were in a knothole of a tree on the 14th hole. The facilities manager was concerned both for the safety of their customers (the public) as well as having a humane and live removal of the honeybees […] 
This property houses a Stargate portal to an inter-dimensional bee hive located in a tree limb that fell from it’s host tree last summer. The rotted section of limb fooled me at first (as this WAS performed on April 1 !) – and the bees were ABOVE the knothole, instead of below it. The queen […] Come see the observation hive and let’s talk about our pollinators at the Garden2Table educational event. I hear that Heather Rinaldi of the Texas Worm Ranch will be speaking immediately prior to my time in the breakout sessions. Join the real food revolution by attending Garden2Table, hosted by Methodist Charlton Medical Center.
Bees moved into a home in Poetry, Texas at least three years ago. The homeowner loves bees, and really does not have a problem with them being here – however when it was time to hire a contractor to do some routine maintenance and upgrades – the bees needed to go – so that progress […] |
