Bees should be shipped with an icepack after mid March to prevent emerging in shipping. Sometimes even with an icepack a few bees will emerge. If this is the case place the bees in their box in the fridge. They will go back into a dormant state and will be ready to pollinate as soon as they are warmed up. They can be safely stored in the fridge for up to six weeks
