Bees don't eat fruit, wasps do. They will usually eat the windfall fruit first so pick that up with great care, preferably wearing gloves.
There is not a lot you can do to stop wasps, but you may be able to distract them by providing fruity syrup (watered down fruit jam) close to the trees. They would probably go for this in preference. Don't use pure sugar syrup because that could be attractive to bees.

The bees are looking for nectar. The pollen sticks to their feet and bodies, dropping off as they travel from flower to flower. If you do not want this to happen, cover the plant with fine mesh and that will keep them away. Or, cut off the flowers. If it is a fruit tree, particularly citrus, the plant will not fruit.
