Bee in my tomato plants.?

i have four tomato plants each in a small plant pot. i was planning on repotting them today into some bigger tubs but i have noticed that in the soil of one of my plants, there is a small hole and every now and again i see a bee, not a wasp or a bumble bee, go into the little burrow. i'm worried that if i try to repot the plant i will annoy it and it will sting me. what should i do?????

Bee in my tomato plants.?
This is a ground nesting bee. They are solitary, in that they do not live in hives. Wait until the bee leaves its nest and then repot with care, trying not to disturb his nest, and then put it back where it stood before. Should do it.
Reply:Just wear a pair of gardening gloves and tip out the plant, the bee will just fly away.
Reply:I'd be very careful about handling that pot. It may have a yellow jackets nest inside. Those are not fun at all to deal with. Yellow jackets burrow in the ground and you'll see a hole that they come out of. Normally when they are in the ground, you kill them at night by pouring gasoline or diesel fuel or a wasp/bee spray down the hole at night. However if you do that you are probably going to kill your plant.





Yellow jackets will follow you if you disturb their nest and then they will get down inside of your clothes and sting you and keep restinging you. I've had them follow me once as far as the length of a football field or more.





Yellow jackets gather in their hole at night and normally won't bother you at night.





Be careful with it. It's not worth a trip to the hospital. If you get stung and start itching, having trouble breathing, or your feet start to itch badly, then get immediately to the hospital. Have someone drive you if you can. You don't want to pass out while driving if you are allergic to them.





Yellow jackets are the kind of bee/wasp that you always see hovering around empty soda cans and around trash recepticals.
Reply:Errr leave it.
Reply:Sounds like one of the solitary bees like the Masonry bee. These do not sting. They will, however, pollinate your tomatoes. Leave them alone if possible.
Reply:Pour water down the hole and run. Then carefully go back and dribble more water down. If the bee doesn't come out, it probably flew away the first time and is gone.





It should be safe to repot.
Reply:I`d say leave the little bee to carry on his business, some breeds of Bee are actually in danger of becoming extinct. By leaving him alone you are doing your bit for nature. Tomato plants are easy to come by.
Reply:unless your severally allergic to bee stings stop being such a Jessy, the chances are the bee will just leave anyway, they only use stings as a last resort as it kills em.
