Enslavement only matters if your level of productivity is still on roughly the same order of magnitude (as in, up to minus a few) of your masters. e.g. you are a cow, a jug of your cow milk is still worth a few dollars in human markets. That means it's still worth it to keep you around.

If you're a mosquito OTOH... even enslavement is not worth it. It's eradication.

An individual bee isn't that productive, at least for the kind of bees that are kept commercially. Or an individual yeast.
