Bumblebees are eaten by other insects such as wasps (beewolves), and by some birds. Although experiments were conducted for humans eating honeybees (as protein), the bumblebee has not been studied as human food.

The breathing sacs of bumblebees can harbor the parasitic mite Locustacarus buchneri. In Europe, a greater threat to their hives is the Wax moth (Aphomia sociella) whose hatching larvae can destroy bumblebee nests.
