A hive is an artificial home provided for honey bees by a beekeeper. Once bees are settled in the hive (or wild colony), they usually stay there and don't move.

Do honey bees carry their hives from one place to another?
Honey bees don't usually migrate. Nor do they hibernate, but they won't leave the hive if it is too cold or wet. They only time they will leave a hive as a group is as a swarm, where roughly half of the colony will leave to start a new hive elsewhere. The only time the whole colony will move is if their current hive becomes uninhabitable for some reason, in which case they will move anything from a few metres up to two or three kilometres.
Does harvesting honey kill the bees?
No. The beekeeper moves the bees to another part of the hive before he/she removes the honey.
What happens to honey bees in winter?
Cluster to keep the queen warm and manage food supplies inside the hive and die or forage outside the hive are the things that happen to honey bees in winter. The course of the winter depends upon the population levels in the hive and the temperature levels. A cold winter results in bees inside the hive if conditions are not crowded (with ejections if they are) whereas a warm winter yields occasional forages back and forth, indoors and outdoors.
Can you remove a hive located outside once most of the bees are dead?
No. If there are still some bees alive, you can get seriously stung. And Trying to move the hive will make the bees madder.

How do you relocate a beehive?
Firstly, do it in the evening when there are no bees out foraging, and block the entrance with sponge and strap the hive sections together.Secondly, there is a saying: 'You must move a bee hive less than three feet, or more than three miles'. This is important because bees learn the location of their hive and usually forage within a three mile radius, although they can go further. If you move a hive more than three feet, foraging bees will return to where the hive was and will not recognize the hive in its new position, so will be lost.If you move a hive further, but still within the bee's old foraging area, they will again try to return to the original hive site.The only solution is to move the hive well out of the original foraging area. The bees will then learn the new location of the hive and a new foraging area and all will be well.There is another part to the saying: '... and don't move them back within three weeks'. This is because the foraging life of a bee is about three weeks, so if you move them back within the original foraging area within that time the older bees will be confused. After three weeks there will be few, if any, bees that knew the original area.
