In my experience, the day before yesterday morning, not dangerous but painful for a couple of days. much like a wasp sting but with less swelling. However they make a lot of noise buzzing and dream of delivering great big stings in proportion to their impressive size. Mike Lean
Italian carpenter bees, like Xylocopa violacea, are not aggressive and rarely sting humans unless provoked or handled. Their sting can be painful, similar to a wasp sting, but is not generally considered dangerous unless the person stung has an allergy to bee stings.
* Rosmarinus officinalis (Rosmary) repels snakes but more importantly insects that attract the snakes. * Cymbopogon citrates(Lemongrass) repels snakes * Marigolds (Tagetes) repel snakes and mosquitoes * Tulbaghia violacea (Wild garlic) repels snakes - it is planted by the Zulus around their homes.

There is a bee that does nest inside untreated wood. This insect is called the Carpenter Bee (Xylocopa violacea). For the most part, the insects are docile. Males do not possess stingers, but will intimidate people and animals with their presence. Females possess stingers, but are only aggressive when their nests are disturbed.These bees usually find untreated lumber or wood and chew tunnels into them. Eggs are laid and sealed up in little chambers made from wood shavings.
Yes, Ipomoea violacea is considered a broadleaf weed. The flowering plant in question may be found referred to commonly as beach or sea moonflower. It meets the requirements of a broadleaf weed since its foliage does not look grassy and its habit is aggressive outside its native ranges.
The Musa ornata is the plant itself while the buds are often refferred to as Musa violacea.
