Bees - These are found earlier in the spring/summer than wasps and are not considered as dangerous and a nuisance either.

Honey bees are often found in swarms and are dealt with by beekeepers, who need the swarms to help make the honey.

Bumble bees/masonry bees are often found in the ground or in a wall, the nests are often hard to locate.

The bees are found to be very large and can also give a potent sting, but look very frightening because of their size.

These can be treated in a similar way to the wasps but sometimes more than one treatment is required due to the size of the nest and the fact they often burrow deeps into the ground.
