Honey bees have made a hive in your lawn because there previous hive has reached maximum capacity. When this happens it is called swarming. The queen produces a female and allows her to take a portion of the drones or workers with her to form a new hive. If the hive I in the lawn it has used a preexisting hole supplied by some form of animal.

What is the bee's home?
The bees home is made of wax and honey. It is found in trees. Bees nourish youth in the hive. Honey is also made in the hive.
How do make honey?
Honey is not made by humans. Bees secrete it in their hive. Humans harvest it by smoking the bees to subdue them and then removing some of the honey comb from the hive.
Do bees make honey out of their mouths?
No. Honey is made in a honeycomb, out of pollen that bees bring back to the hive on their legs.
What do you call the home of bees?
a bee hive
What do you call a bee house?
Honey bees live in a nest, often called a 'hive.' One hive can hold up to 80,000 bees, most of them workers. It is often located in a hollow tree. The hive is made of honeycomb, which are tightly packed hexagonal cells made of beeswax. They use the hive to store food and house their young.
Where does bumblebee live?
Bumblebees are found in many countries, but they are indigenous to the Northern Hemisphere. They have more successful breeding in temperate climates. Bumblebees are threatened with extinction, due to high pollution levels and habitat loss.
How does a beekeeper make the bees go inside the hive?
They normally start by locating a dark enclosed, dry space (in a tree trunk, roof or wall cavity - or indeed a man made hive). The colony of bees including the queen move into this and the worker bees use honey that they have stored in their tummies as they left their original hive to make wax (bees wax). they chew up this wax and shape it into a new comb with hexagonal cells. The queen lays new eggs in this and the new colony starts. With more bees, more time, and more comb is produced to store honey and brood young and the new hive becomes established. A resinous substance collected from the buds of certain trees (called Propolis) is used by the bees as a cement or sealant to plug up any gaps in the the walls of the hive so that predators can not get in and the hive entrance is guarded by young workers.
Do bees eat the honey?
Yes, they do. The honey is the food store for the bees.Honey is made from the nectar that the worker bees collect from flowers. It is brought back to the Hive and regurgitated into the honey storage cells, mixed with bee saliva. In the storage cells the water in the nectar evaporates and the honey forms.
How do bees get energy?
Forager bees collect nectar and pollen, and bring them back to the hive where they are stored. Water is evaporated from the nectar, turning it into honey. Bees eat pollen, a rich source of protein, and honey, which is a carbohydrate.
What Honey is man made or natural?
All honey is made by bees, therefore it is natural. If it is not made by bees then it is not honey.
Why do bees make honey and do they eat it?
Bees don't hibernate, but if the weather is too cold they can't fly out of the hive - and in winter there would probably be no flowers anyway. So, they collect a surplus of food when there is plenty available and store it for the winter. Honey can best be described as concentrated nectar.
Can bees live in a bee farm?
Yes, bees can and do live indoors. Several botanical gardens keep bees.
