The vast majority of bees, wasps, ants and any other hive insects you’ll see, are infertile drones. With each hive housing only a single female individual capable of sexual reproduction, which does not leave the hive after it forms.
Fertile males only exist for a short time during swarming season, and they do die after doing their thing.
They are dying after sexy time I think.
I’m not sure whether you are making a joke?

Not wasps. The majority of wasps you’ll see are fertile.
Also, insect hives can house several fertile females. Some exist around a single queen, but they are an exception, not the norm.
