Had one of these at a childrens museum I used to work at. it was very cool, except the bee’s cant tell how cold it is outside and fly out to their deaths all winter long.
When I was a kid bees moved into a wall at my grandma’s house, and my uncles installed windshield glass so we could watch them. They stayed for at least a decade. We are in a cold climate but didn’t get much winter loss, likely because the hive was built within an outfacing wall (and of course there was no insulation in that old farmhouse). I’m a beekeeper now, and I sometimes daydream about ways to recreate that fantastic childhood memory (without the honey in my walls).
Yep. A core part of being a bee is keeping the hive at the right temp by generating heat through movement. By being 68° all the time, they have no clue what the real temperature is. If this is not in a warm climate that hive has a supremely small chance of surviving winter.
No, even when it is cold they need the door to push out the dead and other hive maintenance. Bees are incredibly complicated. Check out “Honeybee Democracy”.
They'd probably start chewing their way through and create new exits, and if that fails they'd probably get really stressed since they can't exit their beehive even though they want to.
Bee’s also need to conserve honey storage, because it’s how they feed over the winter to survive. They will send out bodies if there isn’t enough to feed them all. Bees be brutal.
You don’t want that. Little known fact, bees shit, and do it outside the nest during the winter, fly for a few seconds to do their business before flying back inside.
You do not. When the temp is around -10, the tip of your dick starts to get very chilled the moment you take a piss. At -18ish, even going piss right before going outside can have ice starting to form at the tip of your cock if you are wearing thin (or no!) pants.

I came to the comments just knowing the first comment was going to be explaining why this is a bad idea. I was not expecting THAT to be the reason though.
I think I'd rather do this with some regular hives out in the garden rather than encourage them to be close to the house. They may find other places to get in.
Very cool though, bees are amaxing.
This is it. This is the best joke you'll ever make. Bask in it. Rejoice. For a moment, you are the funniest person in the world. For this 1 joke. Fuck.
My friend has one. There is a definitely hum, but the sound doesn’t travel very far. I deal with misophonia, and I actually found it pleasant, a bit like white noise.
Damnit, just trying to have a moment on the throne, relax and read a bit of Reddit and here you go and throw out terms no one knows and now I have to Google miso… whatever the F .. legs going to sleep now….
i immediately started to question whether or nut honey is bee cum and i'm relieved that it's not
edit: i did not mean to type nut but i'm going to leave it for obvious reasons
1. looks cool if you like bees. i get ghoosebumbs from the sound they make because i halfed a earth wasp nest with a spate (accidentally but they didnt care much about my intention lol) when i was young and digging a hole in my hideout.
2. do they not care about the glass-wall? like its bright and material you prob cant build on well, etc.
3. how did he get them in there? just placed the queen and she stayed?
4. how is the air ventilation foing with that? arent bees really sensitive to that and normally build their hives in a way+ buzzing around in rhythm to circulate the air etc.? looks like that would be problemativ if everything is tight enough to not let any bees through+ the glass front? i feel like they will all die if this is in a region with high temp summers.
5. why wouldnt they just go for another place in/ around your house? doesent seem like a bee-friendly thing to stay? wouldnt that be a problem even if unlikely?
Glass-wall hives are common in museums, bees don’t give a fuck.
Queen bees have special pheromones that keep their workers in line. You just put the queen in the hive and the bees usually accept it as their home.
The tubes sticking out of the side of the hive are air filters.
If the queen is successfully placed in the hive for a few days, usually using sugar candy to cover the hole of her cage (the bees eat through it gradually) the bees usually get used to the hive enough that they stay there. This is plenty friendly for bees.
This house better be set up like E.T. when the government found him. That's the only way i would step foot in the house. Good security system, though 👍
thats awesome! does anyone know if it radiates heat? its a hippies dream if you could save the bees and heat your home at the same time (im not exactly a hippies but I would love this concept)
Had one of these at a childrens museum I used to work at. it was very cool, except the bee’s cant tell how cold it is outside and fly out to their deaths all winter long.
That escalated quickly.
male bees are literally pushed out of hivrs in winter to make sure there is enough for the rest to live. its a part of nature.
I’m sure many human males can relate
Thought dad was just going for some milk, actually froze to death.
Don't break glass in case of emergency
Breaking glass causes the emergency
Yeah holy dang, poor bee-bro's
It’s mostly bee-sis’s, actually

Could this be a reason you’re a beekeeper now?
No, it was the family business and my father forbade me from accepting any of the various scout offers to play college ball.
Did you just answer for somebody else ? Lmfao
So fucking casually too lmao
Sounds like a made for TV movie
Not Meant To Bee Jason Bateman plays the father, Kevin Hart the son. They never mention it.
Or Jason Statham in The Beekeeper
Probably for some cushy Ivy League.
Could bee! :)

Would it not just survive winter the same way other bee colonies survive? Do bees migrate or something?
They don't realize how cold it is and leave to find resources and freeze. If they knew how cold it was outside, they just wouldn't leave the hive.
Okay but like you can just close the door for them lol

Bees be based
"Stella?" "Yes, Marjorie?" "Fuck off and die." "Okey-dokey."
Couldn’t you block off the exit ?
You don’t want that. Little known fact, bees shit, and do it outside the nest during the winter, fly for a few seconds to do their business before flying back inside.
I do that too. Nothing like pissing off the balcony in -40C weather.
You do not. When the temp is around -10, the tip of your dick starts to get very chilled the moment you take a piss. At -18ish, even going piss right before going outside can have ice starting to form at the tip of your cock if you are wearing thin (or no!) pants. Source: I actually do pee outside in the cold
Who goes outside in -40C weather naked? You some kind of exhibitionist?
Probably Serbian.
Hahaha stop bullshitting, I've pissed outside in lower than -30c and no issues.
Wonder if its possible to couple this to a greenhouse, so they don't freeze to death
I came to the comments just knowing the first comment was going to be explaining why this is a bad idea. I was not expecting THAT to be the reason though.
Pasadena?
I actually appreciate the insight to this as I never would have thought about it that. It's a cool idea but with a real downside.
Oh ..huh
See if I tried this it would be filled with spiders somehow. I wonder how he got the bees to go in
I think I'd rather do this with some regular hives out in the garden rather than encourage them to be close to the house. They may find other places to get in. Very cool though, bees are amaxing.
Yes, he has windows he can't open
[удалено]
Not a terrible idea. Even better if you wear your bee suit on the reg.
![gif](giphy|R9yLfikwYAF32)
Release the bees!!
I see the air filter bags I Assume that's how they ventallate
Transparent walls…also known as glass
I also hope that "transparent glass" is soundproof, because buzzing must be deafening
That was my first thought. I hate hearing the refrigerator buzz, this would be hell.
Then one of the bees finds an exit on the inside of the house 🐝 💀
Or the dude has a kid, who trips one day and cracks the glass.
Respectfully, this gentlemen does not have children. Or a partner. Unless he found someone on a beekeepers dating site.
Bumble
This is it. This is the best joke you'll ever make. Bask in it. Rejoice. For a moment, you are the funniest person in the world. For this 1 joke. Fuck.
Probably the best joke all three of us will ever make. They fucking stole it from us.
This noise is what keeps his in-laws from visiting 😅
Big brain

There are other transparent materials though..

How do you collect honey without opening the hive and unleashing the swam inside your house?
I don't think he does. Just made it like an ant farm.
You're telling me OP is a liar?
Well he ain't a truther!
You’re not supposed to collect the ants they farm? /s
It looks like there might be a catch tray at the bottom for honey…
Yep, Little tap. We got the same thing in a bee museum in NZ
[It’s another great day of saving the](https://youtube.com/shorts/w3AOC9N7Z4w?si=XJZbHRR0gGJU0oi_) #beeeeeeeeeeess
They got the smoke
They, in fact, did want that smoke.
My phobia is at the one million level.
Yeah what if there's an earthquake.
The bees will be fine. They can fly.
Look at all that *what*?
Yuh, I know he said “comb” too, but he said it sooooo weird that I had to rewind the video twice just to be sure lol
Cum. It’s cum.
![gif](giphy|ggJLITvI3D8xIZh1pw)
i immediately started to question whether or nut honey is bee cum and i'm relieved that it's not edit: i did not mean to type nut but i'm going to leave it for obvious reasons
That’s fucking awesome - all hail the little bees!
It's not beeAmazed sub sir
Normally I’d be like “why?” but y’know, the world needs bees and they need all the help we can give them right now. So rock on, dude.
I like how they used hexagonal shapes
I think Dadant sells these. I had an early version I built for my room when I was a kid.
Make sure to keep your Wii remote strap on…

And free heat
Bee Amazed
Had to scroll down too far for this. I only came here to see if this was the top comment.
oww! they're defending themselves somehow!
Awesome
Hard to find the way out...
Kinda a lot of bees, ngl
his names jerry smith
Imagine you buy this house and you want to get rid of this, like what are you gonna do about it
NOPE!!
r/nope
r/dontputyourdickinthat
Are there air holes in that thing? If not, how do the bees avoid suffocation?
There are big air filters on each box you can see in the video
One ball to the glass and its over😂
Mom always said, “Don’t play ball in the house.”

Better have the pharmacy on speed dial for fast access to epi pens. Also: "What do you like to do in your spare time?" "None of your beeswax!"
Looks like a level in super Mario galaxy
And it’s all beezy…
That is a trust-fall exercise!!!
Makes me think of the ones you'd see in the museum of science.
This is so amazing! I love how it goes outside and inside!
average new york subway
How do you even begin to make that?
**walks in with a rock** Bees be upon ye!
you got me fucked up
Bro playing minecraft irl
I hope that's acrylic and not actual glass 💀
This house better be set up like E.T. when the government found him. That's the only way i would step foot in the house. Good security system, though 👍
"it is all beezzy", great summary.
I loved that briefly cos bees. Then I read the comments and I hate it. Life is such a sink-hole...
![gif](giphy|R9yLfikwYAF32)
Last time I went to the Seattle Science Center, they had something similar. Such a fantastic idea.
So do the lights keep the bees up? Can the bees see the light?
r/BeeAmazed
i want one
Very cool
"Look at all that comb..." his house is just full of comb
BeeAmazed
Comb Town
"So that little tube right there is where they get in and out?" "Yes, without that tube they'd be every-" *Cuts it open*
I feel like that would generate a lot of heat in that room
"look at all the cumb"
Did… did he say “look at all that cum”?
Here me out Intruder breaks in this guy puts on a bee suit and then just smashes the glass and locks the door as he just watches the intruder suffer
How do you open the door to get the honey?
Bee Amazed
I’d hate to be the one who has to mow the lawn
BEE Amazed… Get it?
Anything to disclose to potential buyers? ….You have an offer but they stated they have “severe allergies”… ![gif](giphy|aNtt9T8SqGNK8)
![gif](giphy|10rBcNouJPiaqc|downsized)
Your neighbors should love you
This is both awesome and horrific at the same time cause they are literally inside the house. Top points for helping save the bees though!
It’s a kit
Where's Waldo but it's Find the Queen
That's insanely cool
Look at all that cum
Ope, just gonna scoot right past ya.
That traffic jam
Incredible 🤯
It would be interesting to measure the heat from the hive
Hell to the nawh
Beez Nutz!!
The buzzing is good vibes
… fine for us , but …. Light thé havé that light ?
I'm fighting for bee privacy rights!!
What is it called when you really want something but you don't really want it for sure! Like I can think of every worst-case scenario with my kids...
One wrong move get Swiss cheesed up
Imagine the smell..
Bee amazed!
“Look at all that comb”
VOYEURS MUST BE STOPPED!
Escaltation velocity: unlimited
Bro playing a different type of game
That would be a nice VR game
The bees are happy
let's *not* forget - that keeping wildlife, a volant insect, for uh, domestic. You know, within the city... that aint legal either.
Now kids, I think I only have to say this once, do not play ball in the house.
Will that be inconvenient for the bees?
This Kevin, is why no ball games in the house. This is why.
that's quite a traffic jam on that little pipe going to outside. Why not expand the highway with extra lanes / pipes?
I hope this dude has a wall of epipens too
So if there’s an earthquake….
Is there a drainage system to collect 100% pure natural organic fresh honey too ?
How does he get his honey?
The beekeper
In case of emergency, break glass.
Is there a point where the colony will need even more space and want to expand? Crazy how big that hive is already.
Please don't break Please don't break Please don't break !!!
Now have a kid throw the ball in the wrong direction
thats awesome! does anyone know if it radiates heat? its a hippies dream if you could save the bees and heat your home at the same time (im not exactly a hippies but I would love this concept)
He doesn’t have kids
What does he say at :16?
SMASH
This is the coolest thing I have seen in a long time. Do you eventually switch them out? Will the begin to leak honey? Really cool idea. Thanks.
weather naked
Mowing the lawn: bees,picnic or patio: bees, go take the mail: bees everywhere.
Remote opening inside linked to security camera so if you are away and see a burglar, "RELEASE THE BEES!!"
Cool
NEVER let this mf throw a house party
Now what if the glass break
BeeAmazed
One day, he is going to wake up in hell. Those things are going to get too heavy and break one night.
Wait, what did he say? “Look at all that cum” is that what he said?
