Forager bees will return to where the hive was. When they can't find it they will look for a hive nearby (within a matter of a few metres). If they find one they will enter that hive and become one of that colony.
If there is no hive nearby, they will eventually die: how quickly will depend on weather conditions and overnight temperature.
A beekeeper will try to avoid this situation happening by moving hives in the evening after all foragers have returned to the hive.

Can bees survive without a queen?
If a queen dies, then the worker bees will feed royal jelly to some of the larvae and they will turn into queen bees. The first one out will kill all the others, so there will only be one Queen Bee in the hive. This is still a dead end until the queen finds a drone, mates and gets down into the business of egg laying.
How are Queen Drone and Worker bees different from each other?
The Queen is usually the only fertile female in a colony and is basically an egg laying machine. A drone is a male bee whose only purpose is to mate with a virgin queen, after which it dies. A worker bee is an infertile female bee and as its name implies, does all the work in the colony or hive from house-keeping, baby rearing, nectar gathering and honey production.
What do female bees do in the hive?
female bees make honey and do other things in the hive Answer: With the exception of a few male (drones) in the hive all bees in a hive are female. They do all the work. The only task the males have is to mate with the new queens if the hive swarms or if the present queen dies
What happens to the hive when the queen bee dies?
If the queen dies suddenly, the workers will select one or more recently-laid eggs or very young larvae and feed them with royal jelly (a secretion of the workers' hyperpharyingeal glands) and build queen cells around them. These larvae then develop into new queens.When the first one emerges from her pupal cell she will seek out the other queen cells and sting through them to kill the other queens. A few days later she will go out on her mating flight, and on her return she will start egg laying for the colony.
What do the bees do with the dead body of queen bee?
Honey bees generally remove all dead bodies from their hive and that would include a deceased queen bee. I have in the past found a dead queen on the ground outside the entrance to a hive. (The reason I could identify it as a queen was that it was colour marked to help find it - many beekeepers mark their queens thus.)
When a queen bee dies what happens?
If a queen bee dies, the whole colony will die out soon, because there will be no more production of royal jelly. Royal jelly are needed for potential new queen. Queen bees are the only bees that can produces new drones and workers bees.
Hornet queen bee dies what happens to the other bees?
First, hornets are not bees, they are a variety of wasp.If a hornet colony loses its queen there will be no-one laying eggs, so the colony will eventually die out as the older workers are not being replaced.
How do the bees get a new queen for the hive?
When the queen bee dies one of the worker bees feeds a larvae some royal jelly and the larvae becomes the queen

What forms do honeybees use to reproduce asexually?
Drone Bees are Males. Queen Bees are females. During the mating flight, Drones from one or more hives deposit sperm inside the queen. When the Queen Bee lays her eggs, she may allow one sperm to enter the egg and fertilize it. That will create a female bee. If she does not allow a sperm to enter the egg, it will be asexual reproduction. It will produce a Drone, or male bee. In spite of the fact that the Queen Bee had sex, Drones, or male bees are produced without sex, or asexually. In addition, if something happens to the queen and she dies or disappears, the worker bees can lay eggs. They never had sexual contact. All the eggs they lay will turn into Drones. The bees can feed pollen to several of the developing bees and turn them into Queen Bees. One of them kills the rest and then mates with the drones produced from the eggs laid by the workers.
What happens to the queens wasp nest when the queen wasp dies?
If all the bees die out, flowers will die and practically the whole of nature will die. That's because bees spread around nectar to all the plants to keep them healthy (aka grow). Without bees, no nectar, without nectar, no plants, without plants...no greenery. Bees hold a big job than you thought
