Bumble, digger, mining, and sweat bees are bees that burrow in the ground. They respectively belong to the Apidae, Anthoporidae, Andrenidae, and Halictidaeinsect families. They collectively may be referred to as burrowing, earth-nesting, and ground-dwelling bees even though bumblebees -- which are social and build colonies -- will be excluded from the designation solitary bees.

How do you kill ground hornets used 3 cans of Raid and they are still alive What do you do to get rid of them?
Cans of Raid will kill pests on contact but don't leave any residual poison, so whatever's not in the nest when you spray it will not be impacted. From what I've read (I have a ground hornet problem, too) you need to use a dust insecticide like Drion Dust or Delta Dust, and a duster. According to the material I've found, you need to wait until dusk (when all hornets are in the nest and resting for the night), then pump in 6-7 puffs of this dust into the nest. The insecticide can kill for up to 8 months -- whatever does not die when you originally apply it will track the dust further back into the nest, and will kill other hornets that way (including themselves.)
