Bees, Hornets, and Wasps are, for the most part, a beneficial group of insects. They are the major pollinators of flowering plants and help to reduce the numbers of many other insects. However, due to the protective nature of some, they make up a large portion of bites and stings by arthropods. Solitary species like Dirt/Mud Daubers and carpenter bees live independently of each other, while social species like Honey Bees, Yellowjackets, Paper Wasps, and Hornets colonize. Colonies are made up of adult workers, queen(s) and, the periodical male.
It is necessary to do which group of bees/wasps, social or solitary, you are dealing with as it is essential for safety and control. Their bodies are made up of a constricted abdomen, sometimes stalked (daubers and wasps). 4 wings, with the front wings longer than the hind wings: with few veins. Females have a well-developed ovipositor modified into a stinger. It should also be noted that there are several other groups of insects that mimic some bees and wasps in appearance and behavior for protection from potential predators.
