Buzz pollination and nectar robberies are ways that carpenter bees help farmers pollinate such crops as beans, dogroses, eggplants, maracujas, passion fruits, and tomatoes. The insects in question (Xylocopinae subfamily member) employ the buzzing sounds that they emit to cause dried pollen to drop out of plants so that pollination is more efficient and widespread for the farm in question. They also perfect nectar-robbing whereby they remove excess nectar -- that otherwise may attract ant swarms -- from such long-tubed flowers as penstemons and salvias by "drilling" a hole in floral bases for "drip-sipping."
