Re: ground bees

If your critters are bees, they are most likely vegetarian (ie. they eat pollen). It is the solitary wasps that eat caterpillars, etc.

ever see flies on sh*&? Well if the train layout was a pile of crap,
that is what it looks like. You can not step anywhere without a bunch
swarming around your ankles. And now that I have weeded it and disturbed them all, they are just flying around the ground trying to get back in. To be honest, when I first started/saw them, I thought something must be 
dead in there with all those flies, then realized they were not flies,
they were bees. I think every bee in the county is nesting here.
I can't believe I have that many bad bugs to keep that population fed. I 
still think I need to decrease the population..or at least transport
some of them. They need to go about 40 ft west and pollinate that veggie 
garden!
