A colony of bees can contain up to 80000 workers and they only live for about six weeks in the summer as they literally work themselves to death, therefore it is necessary to continually replace the dying bees otherwise the colony numbers will dwindle and it will die out eventually.

What is the cause of laying worker bees?
If a colony of bees goes queenless and the bees are unable to raise a new queen, some of the workers will develop the internal organs necessary to lay eggs but the eggs will be infertile and end up as drones which means that the colony will eventually die. There is no way of recovering from this. If you try to introduce a new queen, the laying workers will kill her.
Are honeybees the same as bees?
No. Some bumble bees are solitary but even the largest social bumble bee colonies are quite small with up to a couple of hundred members -- compared to a honey bee colony at 20,000 to 60,000 members. Also, bumble bees only store enough honey for their immediate needs because over the winter the new queens hibernate and the rest of the colony dies. With honey bees they have to build up a large stock of honey for food when they can't forage in the winter because they do not hibernate and a large part of the colony will survive through the winter.
