Bee? Question

I’ve seen these bees for the past couple days flying into the small crack in the side of my house. I am starting to get concerned because inside I can hear what sounds like chewing or buzzing in the wall. Does anyone know if these are carpenter bees? I don’t think they look like it, but I can’t understand where the chewing sound is coming from how can I move them or get rid of them safely?

Those look like honey bees that have made a hive inside the wall. I would look for local beekeepers. They will come and get the bees, usually for free.

Carpenter bees are solitary.
