No they do not. Some people say they bite but I whack them all the time and none of them ever bite me. Hope this helped!
Like most species of bee, they mostly feed on pollen. Although they make there nests by tunnelling into wood they do not actually eat the wood, they only discard it, or reuse partials for building part.
No they do not bite. Only the Queen can sting. Males, identified by their yellow face, are aggressive and will often dart toward people near a nest. There is no need to be alarmed, males do not have stingers and cannot sting you.
Carpenter bees (the genus Xylocopa in the subfamily Xylocopinae) are large, hairy bees distributed worldwide. There are some 500 species of carpenter bee in 31 subgenera.[1] Their name comes from the fact that nearly all species build their nests in burrows in dead wood, bamboo, or structural timbers (except those in the subgenus Proxylocopa, which nest in the ground). Members of the related tribe Ceratinini are sometimes referred to as "small carpenter bees".
Carpenter bees, sometimes called bore bees, are large, solitary insects that burrow into wood to lay their eggs and hibernate for the winter.
They are larger than honey bees & fuzzy, but smaller than bumbles. Typically they will go in a hole in wood.
