Description
: My deceased brother in law's best friend demonstrates the process of maintaining a bee colony and the production and extraction of honey from the bee flats. A smoker is used which calms the bees while extracting the flats. Bee keepers wear protective bee suits hat with netting. From my experience it does get a bit warm underneath the bee suit. This photo was taken in Robert Louisiana USA, The remarkable thing is from that experience is my fear of bees has diminished. I have reactions when stung by any bee but tolerate and minimal discomfort. It was quite a remarkable day. It is a lengthly process from collecting the trays and then extracting the honey from the combs, The honey extracted that day was very tasty. I am standing on the left holding a bee flat. Depending on the size of the bee farm or bee enthusiast you can make a nice profit by keeping bees. Tugga my brother in laws friend did pretty well, he had his own lables and plastic bear bottles and would sell the organic honey to the local farmers market. I was stung once, one decided to get under my neck screening and amazing, no ill side effects only minor discomfort.
