      Please don’t kill these insects. While these only eat pollen, their larvae are highly carnivorous and will eat tons of pests.

        As with most insects, it pretty much always depends on how convenient / inconvenient it is to capture & release them at the time of finding them. If it is very late and they sit in a bad spot then I’m not gonna go through the hassle. If they release some stink bomb shit when feeling threatened then I’m even less inclined to do so.
