once I was talking on the phone on my room and some bees, around 30 or 40 came into my room, little by little, I figured out they would make a hive, so I just thought I'f do something about it later, and continued talking on the phone with bees around me, actually it was quite nice, but then a while later they started dying one by one, dropping to the floor, anyone knows the why to this? I live in Mexico city if it helps

I have never heard of this happening before, it is very strange. I would understand it would be possible near the end of Autumn, beginning of winter becuase many social insect groups will break up at that time. The workers will fly off to die, allowing the queen to stay in the abandoned nest and survive. It is pssible that the bees you saw were all female workers and their colony was ending for the season. They must have had a colony near your home and in search of warmth, came into your room to die, instead of just succuming to the elements.
That is the only logical explanation I can give you, unless there was some sort of chemical sprayed near by that would have killed them?
I hope this helps.

They could have been sick or confused, or they might not have enough food to feed the colony so some of them had to die. I have no idea why this would happen, but it sounds very strange.

cause they are trapped in your room and can't get out

maybe they tried to live there and had no where to stay and died of hunger
