I see HUNDREDS of them on our annual trek to the cabin in the TN smoky mountains.I guess they are little fatter in TN (American bees...lol).The holes are 7/16".If you have repeat issues with them DU, you can get a distraction thing for them that will keep them off your deck.The cabin owners in TN have them at all the cabins, & they seem to pretty much leave the cabins alone.
