That's one of the questions that I set out to answer here. The thick leather beekeeping gloves are protective but you sacrifice dexterity for sure. I love the idea of using something that is thinner, lighter, yet still protects my hands from stings. Are these gloves the answer?
Mostly in this episode I'm just crazy excited about the fact that my wife faced her fears and put a bee suit on! She is very supportive of me with the YouTube video goals so she offered to do the camera work while I do the beekeeping. Thanks Honey!!
Mamakirbs Puts On A Bee Suit
The swarm that I captured is still in the hive. You'll see in this video how they are doing and what I'm doing to ensure that they have plenty of room. I want them to stick around for a good long time!
Hives are inspected just to check their status, but one of my main goals in this beekeeping adventure is to COLLECT HONEY!! You can check out this recent post to see how I extract all that sweet goodness.
Thanks for hanging out with me here! If you appreciated the camera work of mamakirbs I would love to invite you to head over to the YouTube page for this video to leave a comment to encourage her to do more :)
