it's an ok idea, but i would rather just see beehives be changed.
they should be like anthills.
right click > raid , fight any bees that come out (randomly 1 - 4 swarms or so), then loot the hive (yielding random amounts of larvae 0-5 or something)
also make it so that once the initial swarm is defeated there is either no chance for more to spawn or maybe like 10% chance or so.
include some new curios as well. bee queens, bee warrior, etc.
