• Buzzing Stripey Things Guide – Know Your Friendly & Not-So-Friendly Flyers

    Friendly Flyers (Mostly Harmless)

    Honeybee – Excellent pollinator, makes honey, friendly unless provoked, needs our help the most.

    Bumblebee – Very friendly, can sting multiple times, basically a flying fat panda, excellent pollinator.

    Carpenter Bee – Males can’t sting but may act aggressive; important pollinators, more nuisance than threat.

    Hoverfly – Can’t sting, wears a “bee uniform” for protection, may follow you if it likes you.

    Watch Out – Can Sting if Threatened

    Paper Wasp – Scary-looking but not too dangerous unless provoked; builds paper-like nests; pollinators with no sense of personal space.

    Yellow Jacket – Aggressive, minimal pollination, wants your food, can sting multiple times, sometimes fatal.

    Hornet – Big, intimidating, mostly nests above ground; aggressive if provoked.

    🕷 Special Mentions

    Mud Dauber – Spider hunter, builds mud “organ pipe” nests, rarely aggressive, abandons nests.

    Cicada Killer Wasp – Huge, scary-looking but only attacks cicadas; will sting if provoked.
