Masonry Bees in wall cavity

Solitary Masonry Bees living in weep holes in house wall.

I've just been sat in my garden watching a Solitary bee going about its buzziness, fascinating things and thanks to your video for pointing out that they are harmless creatures.

Thanks for this! Got exactly the same thing occurring on my house! Kinda cute! Gonna leave them alone ☺️☺️☺️

This is so interesting. I spotted a bee going in through one of these plastic holes yesterday and it’s very welcome to stay.

Same here! Notice the same on our weep holes. The bees have filled them in now. Nice to see it’s nothing to worry about! 👍🐝

Thanks for this - We have masonry bees investigating our weepholes on our house at the moment - I was worried there might be a large colony inside but you have put my mind at rest with your video. Thanks again.

Thanks for this, I've just found this happening on my house, will leave them to it now

It's so cool how they can fit their bodies into such a tiny hole

[@mattjswaby]

Just moved into a new house and noticed bees doing this. Was worried there would be a whole nest behind the wall 😬 but good to know it's just one egg / larvae

[@dracol]

The concern is them blocking the weep holes and preventing the function of them

[@stelvioc3691]

I just noticed the same thing and while I would never knowingly destroy bees, I did wonder if there was a hive inside my walls and if I needed to do anything. I'll just let them "bee" as they aren't doing any harm (y)

[@llisntcoolj2375]

I feel terrible, I noticed my weep holes was full of mud, so raked them out, no doubt killing the bee inside 😬

Wow.

[@MatthewSmith-cp3hu]

screw these bees they have drilled holes in my house all over the place

[@lshaffer1980]

Will they damage my wall mine is very similar but they are going through the top. I have honey bees. Should spray pesticide or let them bee

[@HawkinaBox]

Let them be unless they get into your building. Honey bees are very important.

Awwwww. I love that they had a Bee Home already for them to do their business in. SO CUTE.
