Why do bees love brick veneer homes?

Описание: In this video, we remove a bee nest hidden beneath a bathtub using the cut-out method—and explain why brick veneer construction is so attractive to swarming colonies.

🐝 What You’ll See in This Video:
This rescue takes place inside a brick veneer home, where a colony built its nest in the narrow space beneath a bath. We explain how the wall cavity between bricks and plasterboard mimics a natural tree hollow, offering warmth, protection, and a small defendable entrance via the weep holes. You’ll also hear a breakdown of how and why beeswax changes colour over time, and learn about the function of a specialised bee vacuum (Beevac) used in removals like this,.
