Sorry for the poor pics but didn’t want to get too close!

Can anyone tell me if these are bees or wasps? They’re not being a nuisance so far, but the sheer number of them and the sound they are making in the cavity is becoming a little unnerving!

Thanks in advance


Obviously that should read ‘bees’

Wasps. If you let them be they only stay for a few weeks then go.
The nests are never reused.

^ They're very useful in the garden. It's us who are the pointless bellends fking things up.
