The Difference Between Bees, Wasps, and Hornets
Understanding the difference between bees, wasps, and hornets is important, especially when identifying infestations and deciding on removal methods. Here’s how they differ:
Bees
- Appearance - Fuzzy bodies with rounder shapes.
- Behavior - Less aggressive, focusing on pollination.
- Nests - Often found in hives, hollow trees, or artificial bee boxes.
Wasps
- Appearance - Slimmer bodies with smooth, shiny exteriors.
- Behavior - More aggressive, especially when provoked.
- Nests - Papery or honeycomb-like structures built in sheltered places.
Hornets
- Appearance - A type of large wasp with a wider head and distinct body patterns.
- Behavior - Highly aggressive, with painful stings.
- Nests - Similar to wasp nests but larger, often built in higher locations.
While bees contribute to pollination and are typically harmless unless threatened, wasps and hornets can pose risks to humans and pets. It’s crucial to handle their removal carefully and professionally.
