They fan it with there wings.
In order to be able to fly a bee's body temperature must be around 35oC. While flying, the large wing muscles can generate sufficient heat to maintain this, but if the air temperature falls below about 14oC the bee is no longer able to produce enough heat to maintain its body temperature. For this reason bees do not leave the hive if the air is too cool. Within the hive, the bees cluster together and the temperature within the cluster will be about 35oC. As the outside temperature drops the bees just cluster more tightly and in this way they can tolerate the low temperatures of winter. In the summer, bees control the temperature in the hive. As the temperature starts to rise they will fan with their wings to circulate air. If it gets really hot, bees will go out and collect water which they spread over surfaces in the hive. The evaporation of this water helps cool the hive. A bee that is getting too hot in flight will regurgitate a droplet of fluid which as it evaporates will cool its head by up to 10oC. Below about 10oC bees become inactive due to the cold, and above about 38oC their activity again slows down. They can tolerate temperatures of 50oC for short periods.
it takes almost 5 years.......Really?
They carry it in the honey crop, in the same way as nectar. They won't forage for nectar and water on the same trip.
Personally, I will recommend you to take help from a professional belonging to a good pest control company. But if you are still not interested in bees' elimination by a professional pest control exterminator then you have to either use smoke strategy or use organic sprays against the hive. As an organic spray, you can use vinegar and water mixture.
Yes, it affects their ability to forage for nectar. Bees will not leave the hive if the air temperature is below about 14oC (56oF), or if the wind speed is greater than about 12 mph (a bee can only fly at about 15 mph). They also will not fly if it is raining. Long periods of poor weather can seriously affect bees' ability to make honey and, potentially, the survival of the colony.
It helps to keep the hive cool when it gets hot.
Beekeepers keep bees in a hive and more than one hive is known as an apiary.
Bees are kept in a a hive, a beehive.
Oh, dude, mortician bees are like the cleanup crew of the bee world. They're the ones responsible for removing dead bees from the hive to keep things tidy. It's like their version of taking out the trash. So, yeah, mortician bees are basically bee undertakers.

Bees don't make hives. A hive is an artificial home provided by a beekeeper to keep his/her bees in.
Bees do need to collect water, for drinking and to cool the hive. They are not especially attracted to salt water.
Bees within one hive can communicate with bees from another hive through scent trails, which they use to signal the location of food sources or new hive locations. This communication enables bees to share information and resources with bees from different hives within the same colony.
Yes, and they always do so outside of the hive.
Bees
Obviously bees don't make the hives - humans do that. The hives we see today were designed to make it easier to keep bees and harvest honey. Before the current type of hive, it was necessary for the beekeeper to destroy the nest each autumn in order to take the honey.
worker bees pollinate, clean empty cells in the honey comb, make cells from bees wax, take care of the young, guard the hive entrance, and they cool the hive by fanning their wings slowly.
