There are many factors which can affect the amount of honey that can be collected from the hive, including the variety of bee, the weather patterns through the spring and summer, the amount and varieties of flowers within foraging range from the hive, and the strength of the colony.That said, the amount of honey can be as little as none, or as much as 100 pounds of honey from one hive -- and in exceptional cases much more, the record is over 500 pounds.

humans do not effect carpenter bees at all, bees are a man best friend! the reason why they sting is to show that they are willing to risk there life for yours! aka to show that they love you <3
28 to 35 days. The queens can live up to 2 years.So, how long do honey bees live? Do beekeepers need to buy new bees every few months?Answer: Absolutely not! This is one of the great things about honey bees. Unlike other animals (cows, goats, sheep, etc.) which eventually die, the honey bee colony really never dies! Well almost never - in the winter, about 5% of colonies may expire. In the spring, the beekeeper simply catches swarms that leave the good, strong hives that survived the winter - free of charge!Good beekeepers can keep their bees alive for many years by simply catching those wayward swarms or splitting good hives to replace any losses. Effectively, a beekeeper may never spend money on bees or queens - once the bee business is established.You have to think of the honey bees' colony - with its queen, drones, and workers - as a single living creature. On its own, a single bee (even a cluster of a hundred bees) is useless for producing honey or pollinating flowers. It takes the team work of the entire hive to make honey. This means a queen (which might live for several years), thousands of worker honey bees (which might live for several months, but continually are being replaced by the queen - she lays thousands of eggs every day!), and some drones to keep the whole enterprise happy. The colony has living organs - a mouth to feed itself (the forager bees); lungs (the bees that fan fresh air into the hive); a reproductive system (the swarms that fly out each spring); growth tissues (the new wax and new honey stored in 'fat cells' of the hive).... You can see, the the hive is alive and it truly may live for many, many years. Remember WE NEED honey bees to pollenate all of the produce that we eat and the flowers that we grow or they would die! Honey bees are NOT yellow jackets or wasps. Honey bees are an integral part of our ecosystem & are greatly affected by air pollution & all of the other changes in our environment. WHETHER YOU EAT HONEY OR NOT -- WE COULD NOT EXIST WITHOUT HONEY BEES.Till they die.Honey bees only live for about six weeks in the summer, as they literally work themselves to death. However, in the winter they can live for as long as six months as they have much less work to do.
Bee can get honey 2 to 3 times a year. Honey from bees are a seasonal thing.
Honey is the vomit of bees.
3 different honey bees. 1) Queen bee ( lays eggs) 2)Drones ( they do not work just help in reproduction) 3)Workers(work al the time)

Given the current plight of honey bees I wouldn't suggest killing them. This is difficult anyway because there are so many. The easiest and safest solution is to call a local bee keeper. They will come and grab the queen, the rest of the bees will follow her and then the bee keeper can have them or do whatever they do with them.
You light a fire, and put a person on the torches below the bees hive, then they will smoke it out, and you will be able to harvest the honey :D
