Beekeepers can also discover that their own colonies have suddenly become Africanized due to cross-breeding with a newly arrived feral colony of Africanized bees somewhere in the vicinity. This is most likely to happen when a hive's queen is old or dies. The hive will produce a new queen who will then take a mating flight, and it is during this mating flight that drones from the wild Africanized colony will manage to mate with the European queen, almost always resulting in the Africanization of the existing colony.

"although they are similar in appearance to European bees, they actually tend to be ... darker in color. "

African beetle defecates into your honey:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small_hive_beetle
Endemic to sub-Saharan Africa, the small hive beetle, Aethina tumida was first discovered in the United States in 1996 and has now spread to many U.S. states

The small hive beetle can be a destructive pest of honey bee colonies, causing damage to comb, stored honey and pollen. If a beetle infestation is sufficiently heavy, they may cause bees to abandon their hive. Its presence can also be a marker in the diagnosis of Colony Collapse Disorder for honey-bees. The beetles can also be a pest of stored combs, and honey (in the comb) awaiting extraction. Beetle larvae may tunnel through combs of honey, feeding and defecating, causing discoloration and fermentation of the honey.

So how is it that some dumb scientist cross-bred some wild, super-aggressive bees from somewhere in Africa with some "civilized" European bees and created the people-killing monsters now widely known in America as "Africanized honey bees?" One would get the impression that these are all a bunch of spear-carrying, people-hating, super-strong, Mandingo-types of the bee world. The racist American mind has struck again.

Sounds like you're the one that's racist if that's the sort of impression you get from the term Africanized.
