mud dauber
A mud dauber is a type of solitary wasp species known for building their nests with mud. These wasps are often black or metallic blue and may have thread-waist bodies. They are typically not aggressive and their sting is rarely used. Mud daubers mainly feed on spiders, which they paralyze and seal into their nests for their larvae to feed upon.

Mud dauber
Mud dauber is a name commonly applied to a number of wasps from either the family Sphecidae or Crabronidae that build their nests from mud. Mud daubers are long, slender wasps about 25-30mm in length; the latter two species above have thread-like waists. The name of this wasp group comes from the nests that are made by the females, which consist of mud molded into place by the wasp's mandibles. Mud daubers are rarely aggressive and stings are very uncommon.
