Not really. It causes them stress. “Safe” and “Humane” are variable. But it definitely isn’t the “best” restraint method.
As for example explored by this paper: pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10844733/

- Comment on Dubious UK local news websites with Russian links are receiving cash for coverage 6 hours ago:
GB News has claimed a major milestone for its TV ratings as it beat BBC News Channel and Sky News for average viewership in several key slots in July.
However Press Gazette understands the total weekly reach for the BBC News Channel through July remained more than twice the size of GB News while Sky News was almost double.
This means GB News appears to be engaging fewer people in total each month but the high average viewership means their audience stay watching for longer.

- Comment on Would we be able to use the measles virus to reset the immune systems of people with autoimmune disorders like MS or rheumatoid arthritis? 2 days ago:
Probably not a good idea, since measles tends to increase risk of something going wrong in the immune system thus triggering autoimmune diseases.
We have drugs that do similar things to measles in the specific sense of wiping out “immune memory”. Like Rituximab or Daratumab that deplete memory B-cells in different ways. They are effective for some subsets of autimmune diseases.

Yes. Every type of bee except honeybees is declining. In part because humans are constantly favouring honeybees.
