  • Bee-Peeves (289)

    Bee-Peeves (289)
    Jul 29 2024
    In this episode, Jeff and Becky are joined by Dr. Jim Tew to discuss the little nagging issues every beekeeper face, humorously termed "bee peeves." Jim, a seasoned beekeeper and co-host of the Honey Bee Obscura podcast, brings his extensive experience and wit to the conversation, making this episode both enlightening and entertaining. Jim shares his thoughts on the perennial problem of keeping smoker fuel dry and having it on hand when needed most. He humorously recounts times when running out of fuel in the middle of an inspection led to frantic searches for leaves and twigs, often resulting in unintended consequences like poison ivy exposure. Becky and Jeff also share their frustrations, from dealing with the sticky aftermath of honey spills to the unpredictability of how long inspections will take. They highlight the difficulty of estimating time needed for hive visits, which often leads to underestimating the time commitment and subsequent delays in their schedules. Jim discusses his dislike of unexpected stings, especially those that occur outside of the bee yard. He vividly describes the chaos of being stung by a bee that finds its way up a pant leg or under glasses, turning what should be a peaceful task into a painful and frantic experience. Throughout the episode, Jim, Becky, and Jeff's lighthearted approach to these common bee peeves offers listeners a chance to laugh and commiserate. Their stories and insights provide both seasoned beekeepers and newcomers with practical advice and reassurance that they are not alone in facing these everyday challenges.
