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.
Bees do not move a natural hive. They build their hive in a specific location and use it as their permanent home. Swarming is a natural process where a new queen and a portion of the colony leave the hive to establish a new one.
Bees in a hive have specific roles and a social structure that allows them to work together efficiently. The queen bee lays eggs, worker bees collect food, care for the young, and defend the hive, while male bees mate with the queen. Bees communicate through pheromones and dances to coordinate their behavior and maintain harmony within the hive. Additionally, bees build combs in specific hexagonal shapes to maximize space utilization.
Certainly talk to him if you are worried. But it is inevitable there will be a few bees left behind after the hive is taken. They were probably away foraging at the time. Bees can't survive for long without a hive, so will die after a few days. The exact time will depend on the weather and the availability of nectar. But in any case the lifespan of a bee means that even with a hive they wouldn't live for more than three or four weeks of foraging. Another point of comfort: The queen will have gone with the hive. Worker bees on their own can't breed. Although female, they've never been mated, and can't be.
Usually when I dispose of a good sized bee hive, I like to put some water on boil and toss the hive in there. Once the hive has melted into a chunky, honey-coated stew, I like to sprinkle a bit of sugar and some butter, to enhance the flavor. Then, just serve and enjoy. Usually a good sized hive is big enough to feed a family of 3.
