What kind of bee makes a nest like a hornet?
Yes. Some hornets and some wasps do indeed make honey. However, the honey made by wasps is not consumed by humans.
Why do wasps live in hives?
Wasps, depending on the variety, live in both. Underground nests usually have to entrances Paper wasp nests are easy to spot in trees during the fall and mud wasp nests are usually dark gray and seem to usually be found under the eaves on a vertical wall.
How do hornets make their nests?
Hornets make their nests out of chewed paper products or wood chips combined with hornet saliva. A hornet's nest has the appearance of an upside down tear-shaped ball. Nests are utilized only for one season.
Do rabbits nest in the trees?
No. They make nests slightly underground. Have you seen any with wings?
What animals eat wood on a swing set?
Polistes wasps. They make their nests out of wood pulp and will choose unfinished wood to chew.
How do you take down a wasps nest to preserve?
If you're speaking of the large paper-type nests made by hornets, wait until they abandon the nest in the Fall. Watch the nest closely for activity and suddenly after the first couple of good frosts (late Oct to early Nov in our area) you'll find the wasps have all left. They're done with it! You do, however, want to get the nest as soon as possible after it's been abandoned as it can quickly deteriorate once the wasps leave. All you have to do after they're gone is cut it loose from the twigs/branches that are holding it and it's all yours! These large nests make great conversation pieces.
What bees or hornets or wasps make nests that look like ant hills?
There are three types of bee that nest in the ground: digger bees, sweat bees and mining bees. These are known collectively as ground bees and are particularly beneficial as pollinators.
If you have killed three black bees in your house within the last three weeks does this indicate you could have a nest inside your house?
No it doesn't mean you have a nest in your house. Bees, wasps and hornets make their nests outside. They could be in the walls, or if you have windows or a door open then they could have just flown in. I get bees and wasps in my house off and on simply because one of my doors is open when I'm gardening. Check around the outter perimeter of your house to see if you can see a hive of any sort. If they are bees (generally yellow with dark brown strips) then call a beekeeper. Bees are getting to be a rarity for some reason so don't kill them! Hornets and Wasps have elongated bodies (may have stripes depending on the region you are in). You will have to get an exterminator.
What are hornet adaptations?
Hornets are able to sting insects and people to defend themselves. They have also adapted to be able to chew wood in order to make nests or hives.
What are the wasps behavior?
It depends on the type of Wasp. Altho they can sting, and hurt like heck, they are really beneficial insects. They scavage small animals that have died, like mice, or birds. Which helps in the ecology of a forest, or even a backyard. I have seen two wasps eat a dead mouse in two days. Wasps that make paper nests fly to an unpainted wood fence or chair, and scrape tiny shreds of the wood, which they bring back to the nest. They also drink water , which they use to wet the wood, to build the nest. If you leave them alone, they don't usually bother you. The wasps are different from the hornets, which are really the ones to watch out for! There are also wasps called "solitary wasps", that hunt for caterpillars, paralyse them with a sting, bring to a small hole in the ground, or tree, then the wasp lays an egg on the paralysed bug. When the egg hatches, the baby wasp gets to eat the caterpillar. This also is very ecological, as the wasps usually lay eggs on insect larva that eat many of our commercial crops. Some greenhouses actually have tiny wasps in the greenhouse to use as natural pest control. There are many different kinds of wasps, check the library, there are many books on wasps, bees, and hornets to look at, read and get information from.
