The young lady in the video btw is a ten year old aspiring beekeeper from Houma, Louisiana.

Her Dad & I spoke about a week ago & he mentioned that his daughter liked watching my videos, crazy, I know, figured she'd have better things to do than watching some bearded guy remove bees from buildings & such

Anyway, she & her Dad just started keeping bees & enjoying it together, Father & daughter!

I told him I'd do a shout out for her, her name is Mya, tall for her age I noticed in the pic he sent me. His wife is 5' 11" & 12 yr old daughter is 5' 5"!

Anyhoo...

Looked like a fun afternoon for sure!

Great video

Do you like the Colorado vac better than the Robo style?
Seems to me like when you slid the sheet metal divider out it would roll up bees, maybe not enough to make any difference though. I know the Robo style has a shim in the middle of the stack also but I never use it.

 Has always glad to see a video of you getting the bees, you make it look so easy but I know it is work to get them. Thanks.
