I don't need a viable argument. They are just a trolling method by botany. they ALWAYS get out, they ALWAYS sting people, and they ALWAYS are let out on purpose.
Just...Get rid of them. The reason we have them is not the reason they wander the halls, killing people and being impossible to kill, due to sprite searching.

Eh. It doesn't happen that much. It's like, once in months?

Jasri nearly died due to bee's like...two weeks ago. And I've hear dsomeone yell about it at least four times since then, not including today. it happens whenever we have botanists who grow bored and decide it's time for Plan B.

Nik removing things just because they're abused is a slippery slope to us not having anything fun to mess with

But bees aren't fun. They don't do anything besides annoy people.
They are suppose to make crops grow faster, but if they do, I don't ever see plants come of it, because the botanist is in the medbay, being treated for bee stings.
Tell me one reason why we have bees. Because it's not for plants.

Nasir always uses bees when in botany. And has never caused them to escape. So im suppose to be punished and not have bees for something someone else did? If that's the case then a lot of things need to be removed. Bees are a danger, just deal with it.

Bees are stronk. If you see bees you run away so you won't die, too.

Remove bees? Those are what make plants way above average. They replace the need for fertiliser, make the quality improve better. If you want to remove anything dangerous, take knives away from the chef. And the gibber.

SKoP that's my point, removing one useful dangerous thing just because some people abuse it.. we'll have to remove all the dangerous chemicals from chemistry, viruses, atmos, mechs, the gibber, the singularity, tools, tasers, batons, knives, flashbangs, flashes, toxins etcetera etcetera.. you get the idea.. removing bees because of one group of people is silly. We should just go straight to the source, and remove the people, not remove the useful tool that bees are. Tool out.

But once the bee's arrive, no one can bloody get rid of them. It's like trying to click that one god damn key in space quest, you just cant do it. And the key is moving.
A secondary point: Can we get some kind of fly swatter that smashes bee's by activation and not by clicking them?
Because That would be the bee's knee's. (Kill me)

No man. We just need a new chemical concockshun. Insect Killer. It's like space cleaner but it cleans the bugs outta here. It could be used against spiderlings and spiders (maybe a bit more for the big boys) and stuff, and it'd make sense. Now if someone is afraid of this hoard of bees buzzing at them- kill a scientist, get his ID, get a chemsprayer, ask for the insecticide and BAM. Bee's bane. We could even make a "dead" sprite for the bees (assuming there isn't one) which is basically the same thing as the normal bees just minus the moving part.

(I know this is for cockroaches and other insects, so lets go with imagination)

I think even if the bee sprites were a little bigger would help. They're like a single pixel big currently.

If that's the case then a lot of things need to be removed. Bees are a danger, just deal with it. Effectively, what Nightmare said. The best and most comprehensive argument to be found in this thread, and one I'm going to stick with. They're staying, sorry. Just because toxins can be used to completely wax the station, doesn't make me want to remove it. Same for bees.
