Dirt daubers, also known as mud daubers, are wasps that are generally not aggressive and rarely sting humans. Their sting is not considered poisonous; while it can be painful, it typically causes only mild discomfort similar to a bee sting. Most people do not have serious reactions, but allergic individuals may experience more severe symptoms. Overall, they are more beneficial than harmful, as they help control pest populations.

Do dirt dobbers sting or bite?

No dirt daubers don't sting they are harmless to humans but the paralyze spiders . With there stingers . So if it lands on you don't freak if you don't want it on you than just push it / or wiggle the spot it is on . You can actually use your hand and smash the nest while the dirt daubber in it .

What is the difference between dirt dobbers and and wasps?

Well, I reckon the main difference would be that the dirt dobbers are typically black and live in mud hives. Now when I cracked open their hives in my grannies basement inside were the skeletons of mostly spiders. The way I figure is they use their hives as storage facilities for food. A wasp on the other hand is usually yellow and black and of a fatter design than the dobber. Dobbers are typically skinnier. A wasp will live in a hive with several other wasps. The hive will mostly be used to store their larvae and not their food. Wasps are more aggressive and will sting you if you threaten them or their hive. I've never heard of anyone getting stung by a dobber. I've been around many and they seem pretty docile. So if you want to choose one as a neighbor, I'd go with the dirt dobber.

No dirt dobbers do not sting, however that doesn't mean I would go messing with them. Posted by, member yipyapzap if they don't sting, why worry about messing with them? and are you really really sure they don't sting??? although i have never been stung by one, i have heard folks say they DO sting, but they arent as aggressive as yellow jackets or bees. whatever it is buzzing around may or may not be a stinger. noone REALLY knows unless they have been stung!!
