when population exceeds in a hive then beekeeper needs to divide the colony b4 the swarm and provide new queen for them.

professional beekeeper must check out the hive at regular frequency and he must have the idea about the population of the bees and efficiency as well as age of the queen. If queen gets old and weak then the bees start making new queen and when new queen is formed then the old one leaves along with her group.
next if population is exceeded from certain level then they cannot be accommodate in single colony hence they swarm off.
3rd if food is insufficient then they migrate.

Anyone that doesn't want bees in their neighborhood needs them in their underwear.

I suggest you read what I actually wrote.

Lots of things bees transfer pollen from are primarily wind polinated and there is no nectar source for them in grass, but they will take what pollen they can when they are in need. It does enhance the grass, we've tested it at sod farms with bees and a mix of clover and other feeding sources for the honey bee. The grass fills in thicker.

Tell me something I don't know.

Same reason I shouldn't have to register the jar of nuts in my house - that's why.
The wasps, hornets and wild bees are not registered - those under control certainly don't need to be.

Bring some factual data and maybe you could do better.
Fact is bees and mankind have coexisted since the dawn of civilization, and mankind hasn't perished.
Next time someone slips me crab meat and I administer myself aid, I'll think of you.
Bees who swarm are at their most dossicle. And any beekeeper can fairly easily hive a swarm if they have a spare hive laying around as alot of us do. I can sit 5 feet from a hive and not get bothered by the bees. People who would ban bees in a naborhood need to get their facts straight on bees before banning them.

they are practically harmless from raising a hive of my own. if your going over to the hive and purposly squishing them or hurting the hive thats when they sting! i did get stung 2 times and thats because i was opening up the hive, i was starting the trouble! i always have them land on me as proof how harmless they are, i even put my hand so they walk on it and nothing happens because i show no harm towards them,im just another leaf!believe me they dont want to die, they live a short life.
