actually, I happen to live in Africa, keeping Apis mellifera adansonii.
Yes, we get the good and the bad, weeding out the latter. Beekeeping

The bees are what they are and whether we consider them domesticated or
not does not change anything. To call them domesticated or not is
nothing but a label awarded them by us.
