Yes, mason bees sting if they are female even though no, they do not if they are male. Female mason bees sting, less painfully than honey bee or wasp stings, only if they're in serious danger, such as being trapped in clothing or getting purposely caught in the hand. Male mason bees have male genitalia instead of an ovipositor, and therefore they cannot sting.

Mason bees are not aggressive and rarely sting. The male mason bees don't even have stingers, and the females will only sting if they are handled roughly or feel threatened.
