About Bees
- Bee’s body is divided into three parts: a head with two antennae, a thorax with six legs, and an abdomen.
- All bees have branched hairs somewhere on their bodies and two pairs of wings. Only female bees have stingers (which are modified ovipositors, organs originally used to lay eggs).
- Many bee species have black and yellow coloration, but many do not—they actually come in a variety of colors, including green, blue, red, or black. Some are striped, and some even have a metallic sheen.
- They range in size from large carpenter bees and bumble bees to the tiny Perdita minima bee, which is less than two millimeters long.
umble Bee
They live in colonies not exceeding 50 insects. Naturally they nest in tunnels on the ground or build wax nests on grass. They also build their nests under roof beams and attics. They will aggressively defend their nests through multiple stinging.
Carpenter Bee
These insects can be found both in the forest and residential areas. They bore on dry wood and create tunnels where they lay their eggs and nurse their larvae. These tunnels can be a few inches to a more than a foot long.
