Know what you’re dealing with

Bees

Bees are round, stocky and covered in fine hairs. They build their nests from wax, often in cavities such as roofs, walls and trees, and feed on nectar and pollen. They are generally defensive, staying close to the nest and stinging mainly when they feel threatened.

Wasps

Wasps are slimmer and smooth, with a narrow waist and bright yellow and black markings. They build papery nests, often under eaves, in trees or in sheds. They feed on sweet foods and other insects, so you’re more likely to see them around people and food.

Hornets

Hornets are larger, thicker-bodied wasps with smooth bodies, often browner or reddish with yellow markings. They build large papery nests and defend them strongly. Like wasps, they feed on insects as well as sweet foods.
