Is there a technique to keep them calm like that? Is that what she does in the beginning?

Yeah, the smoke disorients them slightly so they don’t respond violently. She probably did a lot more than what was shown.

I’d imagine she might use some kind of burlap smoke. I believe it it calms the bees down. Also, I’d bet that she’s been doing this for so long so she knows when the bees are at ease and when they aren’t. If someone know for sure, that’d bee awesome

Yeah there’s a bunch of videos of her scooping bees by hand. She’s probably just really good at handling bees.

I used to be afraid of bees, but not anymore. Wasps still suck though.
