Unfortunately, most insecticides are not effective on these bees since they only cut the leaves and do not chew on them. This article has a few non-chemical suggestions to help reduce damage to desirable plants:

Onslaught is labeled for a wide variety of small flying insects including gnats, midges, and other small biting flies, and should help reduce the number of noseeums on your property. Be sure to spray the areas where you have noticed the noseeums landing or resting as Onslaught will only eliminate those insects that land on treated areas.
For indoor use, we recommend Microcare aerosol.
Demon Max contains petroleum distillates and we would recommend to turn off pilot lights before applying it. Also make sure to wait until it's all completely dry to use again or avoid applying it near that area.
Demon Max is not labeled to be used on wood floors and would not be recommended. Being an oil based insecticide, it has an extremely strong odor and will stain surfaces such as wood, concrete, vinyl, etc.
If you are treating for wood destroying pests, Bora-Care would be the recommended treatment for treating raw wood in it’s bare state (no paint, stain or sealant). When applied to raw wood, BoraCare absorbs completely throughout the wood and lasts the entire life of the wood
Please read the product label for complete application instructions.
Demon Max is labeled to kill spiders including brown recluse. Please read our Brown Recluse Spider Control Guide for more information about spider treatments.
Demon Max does not list lady bugs as a target pest on the product label therefore we cannot recommend this for eradicating lady bugs specifically. If a lady bug were to contact a treated surface however it would most likely kill it.
Demon Max cannot be used on any pasture area. Any animals that would be used for slaughter you would use Extinguish Fire Ant Bait instead in pastures.
Demon Max cannot be applied inside appliances nor on stoves at all. It can only be applied as a spot crack and crevice spray on the outside surfaces and under refrigerators, stoves, furnaces, etc. as directed on the product label. We would recommend using a labeled oven cleaner to remove the product completely from the stove and give the inside ample time to dry before using.
We apologize but we cannot offer a guarantee on Demon Max as we cannot guarantee that they will be used as directed. We do try to provide as much information as possible on what to expect and how to to use as well as what to do non chemically. We do know they work and you can read previous customer reviews right on the product pages.
However, if the product does not work for you, we try to troubleshoot to see what may have gone awry ,
