A good patent reviewer should flag an idea that is in the common domain or is already patented, but the patent office relies on the submission of the inventer's patent attorney.
I find that the patent folks are not well informed about bees.  In addition, nowhere does it say that a patented .... has to work, and it only takes a small tweak to make it different.   I've seen a big bump in patents for things that are common knowledge.  It seems to be a new game.  File a patent on anything that might make money.  Don't plan to follow through with a product.  Wait till someone else provides the product or service, then sue.  It's a scam similar to beekeepers saving on costs by borrowing someone else's hives for rental for pollination.
