the next-door neighbor put up an ultra-violet zapper or two, one could lose
a lot of bees.

In that case, I would make sure that the entrance of the bees is facing away
from where the zapper is.  If the bees cannot see it they will probably not
be attracted.  A barrier such as a hedge or shade cloth would also probably
work.
