Sawflies can be harmful, particularly to certain plants, as their larvae feed on leaves and can cause significant damage to gardens, crops, and trees. While they are not typically harmful to humans or animals, large infestations can lead to decreased plant health and aesthetic issues. In most cases, they can be managed through cultural practices or targeted treatments if necessary. Overall, their impact largely depends on the specific species and the context of their presence.

Sawflies primarily feed on the leaves of various plants, including trees and shrubs. Their larvae, often mistaken for caterpillars, can be found consuming foliage, which can lead to significant damage to the host plants. Some sawfly species are more selective, preferring specific plant families, while others are generalists. Adult sawflies typically do not feed, as they focus on reproduction and laying eggs.
Wasps are in the order Hymenoptera.This is the same order as ants, bees and sawflies.

An argid is a member of the Argidae, a large family of sawflies, containing around 800 species worldwide.
Female sawflies have a needle-like ovipositor that they use to lay eggs inside plant tissues. They do not sting or bite humans, but can cause damage to plants by feeding on them or laying eggs in them. Sawflies undergo complete metamorphosis, with larvae resembling caterpillars and adults resembling wasps.

Bees are in the class hymenoptera. Their closest relatives are the other members of the class and these include wasps, ants, sawflies, and hover flies.
The bee is in the family hymenoptera (which also includes wasps, ants and sawflies) and group apidae (honey bee) or bombus (bumble bee).
