...isn't that a hornet, rather than a bee?
That's the gag. She mistook it for a queen bee, which is why she said to hide his black clothes, because is "well" know bees hates black.

Hornets (and wasps) don't seem to have the same aversion to dark colors as bees lol:

('...they’re not attracted to darker shades like blues and blacks'. I guess that's why it left them alone.)

Information about bees, how to be prepared for encounters with them, and their aversion to anything dark-colored:

Fun testimonies from a bee forum:
beesource.com/threads/bees-hate-black.188148/

The author also used "女王ハチ". Apparently, ハチ is more commonly used for bees (eikaiwa.weblio.jp/column/phrases/handy_english_phrases/bee-phrases), while バチ is commonly used for hornets
(ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/オオスズメバチ)

And the bee background for the gag. It's the cutest!! :D

Edit to add: I'm not a bee expert, so I really appreciate this information about bees and their dislike for dark colors because I had no idea :ROFLMAO:
