How bouts wood bees?
Those seem to be plentiful around here this year. Those dam things like to chase you too. I had 4 of them after me the other day. I got to swatting them out of my face and One of them almost went down in my boot.
I think I would've died.
Tell me why I shouldn't hate them.![]()
Wood bees???
Do you mean ‘carpenter bees’?
if so, I think you should hate them...
But from memory... I think they are very unlikely to sting... but they do destroy rafters and such...
They do pollinate certain things, so there is that... but I kinda don’t care

I once sat on a covered deck with a couple of friends at a rented house grilling brats... and the rafters were ate up with them .., the smoke from the grill made them pour out ... my friend Shaggy swatted over a hundred with a little fireplace shovel in an hour or so
