Differences between Bumble Bees & Carpenter Bees | |
 Bumble Bee |  Carpenter Bee |
The carpenter bee has a shiny upper abdomen, while the bumble bee has fuzzy hairs.
The carpenter bees are all the same same, but bumble bees have varying sizes.
The carpenter bee hovers around the upper rooflines of your house and flies in a quick erratic manner. The bumble bee flies around near the ground in a graceful manner.
The carpenter bee drills 1/2 inch entrance holes in the upper trims of your house with y branching tunnels extending 8 inches each. They live inside these tunnels and lay new eggs inside. If left alone, woodpeckers will eventually find them and severely damage your fascia or trim boards in the process. Sometimes you can hear them drilling and see the sawdust falling down.

Yellow Jackets – Wasps
Eastern Yellow Jackets average about 1/2 inch long, but the late hatching new queens can be 1 inch long. They have alternating black and yellow stripes. They’re not as hairy as bees. Their wings are a smoky brown color. Yellow jackets build nests in many areas; chipmunk burrows, hollowed logs or stumps, stone walls, under or inside eaves and inside wall voids of our homes. The nests they build inside your walls can become very large by late summer. Many people are unaware of there presence until the cold weather starts driving them into the house. Yellow Jackets, like most wasps, can sting repeatedly, and will do so when threatened. The females are the only ones with stingers. Yellow jackets are the most common problem stinging pest in Massachusetts. They also cause the most cases of allergic reactions.
Some of the worst cases of attacks have happened when someone unknowingly runs a lawnmower over a chipmonk burrow that has been taken over by a large underground yellow jacket hive. They will swarm out and attack you from behind. Another, unfortunate incident happens when someone is using electric hedge trimmers trimming a shrub or bush and stumbles upon a large yellow jacket hive, or bald-faced hornet nest hidden inside. This will also cause them to swarm out and attack the person closest to the shrub. Remember to always look inside bushes and shrubs for round paper hives before trimming. Also, remember to check your lawn to see if there are any areas where yellow jackets are coming out of the ground before mowing the lawn.
Caution: If you see yellow jackets going into a small hole in the side of your house and you can not see the hive, DO NOT SEAL UP THE HOLE or SPRAY A PESTICIDE INTO THE HOLE. This will only drive them into the house. Aerosol pesticides that you buy are extremely repellant and the wasps will just travel through the walls and between the floors looking for new ways out away from the treatment. You will then have yellow jackets coming into the house for up to 2 weeks. We use special dusts that will not cause this problem.

Bald-faced Hornets
Bald-faced hornets can quickly build large grey or brownish paper nests. They are large hornets and are very aggressive. When their hive is threatened they will swarm after the attacker. They are smarter than yellow jackets and will chase you clear across the property. A bee suit is highly recommended for bald-faced hornet removal work. Its not uncommon for someone to even be stung through a bee suit. Multiple hornets will try to attack you in a small concentrated sensitive area. This way they can do the most damage. These are New England’s most feared stinging insects.

Sand Burrowing Ground Wasps & Digger Bees
There are many species of digger wasps and digger bees. The black and silver type can be seen flying low in figure eight patterns above sand lots. They will bury their eggs into the sand and then cover over the holes with sand. There are digger bees that will have interconnected tunnels under leaves in a garden or lawn area. There are also the large colorful digger wasps that make their large 1/3 inch wide tunnels in hard packed soil areas like along our walkways. When found these wasps should be promptly dealt with before they have a chance to multiply and spread.
