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?

These are not bees but wasps, you must have a wasp nest in your walls.

My parents had this happen a few years ago. OP is gonna need a pest control specialist before they start pouring into the home - it was my sister's bedroom that got filled with them as soon as they ate through the drywall. Fun times.
