This mason bee is ????????????, pulling a nail from brick to create her new spring hive in
She is pulling a nail from brick to create her new spring hive in.
Mason bees are named for their habit of using mud or other “masonry” products in constructing their nests, which are made in naturally occurring gaps such as between cracks in stones or other small dark cavities. She wants this hole.
Pretty cool!

If you just remove the nail for her, will she abandon it as a home?

Seems like someone fell in the honey pot when they were young

These bees are of the best pollinators in the insect world

I love bees. Much respect for them.

Bees can melt steel beams!!!!

This bee *understands there is a hole behind the nail.*

I love mason bees! Our barn rafters had a group of them a couple summers. They were so fun to watch and never bothered us or the sheep
Sindarian
You go little bee! Make more of yourself!!!!

She works hard for the honey so you better treat her right

I'm actually in the process of making a solitary bee "hotel" for the nature park I work at. Gonna call it "The Grand Buzzapest Hotel"
Zahnradfee
Make sure you drill the holes perpendicular to the grain.

I hope it'll BEE successful!

It’s like the equivalent to a human throwing a steel girder around
hatershades247
More like a 300 pounds steel wedge that’s been driven into mortar, unreal
GreenFox
well, yeah, it was in the whole I wanted to build my summer home in.

Carpenter bees eat perfectly circular holes in wood to do the same. They look machine drilled they're so perfect.
SpikeTheGoat
Each year we always have them around our house. Amazing how they create such perfectly round holes.
mindfunkie
Do they attack people? I think ive had them coming out of the light fixture hole and coming after me lol
SpikeTheGoat
Never been hurt by one, though they do tend to buzz around you. Many times they followed me on my lawn mower, hovering about by their nest.>
SpikeTheGoat
< But as far as I know only females can sting but VERY RARELY do. Like don't stick your finger in their nest, but being nearby they buzz ya.
mindfunkie
like 8 came out.I was terrified cuz they kept coming at me.When i was sitting,i felt an awful pain,really sharp but i didnt see a mark on me
mindfunkie
I told the landlord and he put duct tape around the hole and havent seen them since.
Xeires
But..why is there a nail in the brick to begin with
RingSting
I remember seeing this clip. The hole was bigger than the nail by a long way, they just put it in the hole to show how the bee can clear it.
dryhumpadrunkbum
There are masonry nails but this is a roofing nail.
zaphod
probably was already the entrance to her nest and someone put a nail in it to collect internet points.

buttbuttpartywagon
Probably a hole that someone put a nail in

"Fucker blocked my door!" - bee, probably

Holds the wall up.
10galofmilk
Of course
Captain71
The masons put nails in the bricks sometimes for a string line to run the next course of bricks or check for square, plum and level.
Xeires
Usually in the wet mortar so that it doesn't leave a hole though.
Captain71
Yup. Probably just stuck a nail in the bee hole.
bernardld
It keeps the bees out.
adriedupoldprune
Evidently not.
HinamilGreyworks
Yeah they didn't put anything to hold it in.
Killerma
Once when I was little I stuck chewing gum over a hole in a wall I noticed a bee coming and going from.. I feel bad about it, poor thing.
aalcoholism
I stuck a nail back in the hole once.. with the bee still inside it. I remember the crunch of the exoskeleton. I felt terrible :(
Dudeitsausername
I still do that except I use call or something that is quick drying to kill those fuckers.
RedcoatMic
Why?
DrKriegersClone
Because
MrAgnosticman
I was going to do that with a wasp nest hole that chewed its way from the siding into the space in the walls. That would have been bad.
Killerma
Wasps are arseholes.. Arseholes that I respect, but still consider arseholes.
SomePeopleCallMe
Wasps can chew their way through walls. I need to always remember this in terror for the rest of my life.
MrAgnosticman
Here is a tip, if you see anywhere there might be chewing or places where they might and are coming in, mix water and vinegar and spray at/1
MrAgnosticman
These places. Especially where they get in your house. They hate the smell and will avoid it. Gives you time to call exterminators./2

Don't worry, in the impending apocalypse they'll just become cazadors.

When I was little I got bit on the end of my nose. Fuck 'em.
Trouserdangernoodle
A bee bit you? You sure about that? It BIT you?
TheRugby
Yea! It left it's tooth in me!
WyrmsWorks
They do that. They have mandibles.
Killerma
Did you bother them? You shouldn't bother them.
PrincessNausicaa
Me: Mummy, there's a bee on my. Mummy: Sit very still, sweetie, and it'll fly away. *I sat very still. The bee stung me.* Pah. The other 1/
PrincessNausicaa
two times I've been stung I didn't notice the bee. It came behind me both times and got me. I have never been stung whilst running away. 2/2
Killerma
They must just find you bothersome.. I'm sorry, but you're a bee bothererer..
