Bluish Black Flying Insects on My Roof
These are my observations:
They can fly
They are an inch in length
They are a bluish, black in colour
I have seen them around the roof of my house only.
This could also be helpful. My home is situated about a ten minute walk from a very large outlet of running creek water.
I really want to take care of the problem myself and not pay a pest control company to fix the problem. Does anyone know what I am dealing with?

I have those too. Looks like they made a nest in my overhang by my patio door. What are they and how do we get rid of them? They swoop down towards you as if warning to keep away. I would really like to enjoy my backyard without screaming and dashing into the house all the time! My roof is new by the way, so it can't be the roof.

I have a min-pin male named Casey, he looks very much like yours except he has white patches on his chest and feet. We rescued him from homelessness and I am not going to have his ears, tail or anything cropped off. I think they are so much cuter with long tails!

What a sweet photo. Mini-pins are so loving.
My friend has one and when I walk into her home the doggie comes barreling at me and wants up.
She is an adorable very overweight baby.Full of love.
You have two cuties great combo!!

Your babies are beautiful. I have to admit, MinPins are
my favorites. Our Rowdy is just wonderful. He is
spoiled rotten, demanding, loud, and very loving.
He is our second MinPin, they are truly special, and
to mix in a little chiuaua, would be a perfect mix.

I think they are called "spider wasps" go to www.pestcontrolcanada.com They will have pictures. I think the bluish wasp are quite harmless unless you disturb their nest. They most often are solitary wasps. They are carnivores. They eat spiders. Often time taking over the spiders' own home and eats him/her. From I have read about them , they are not that aggressive toward humans.

We have insects like that around here. I think they may be blue wasps. Yes, they can sting! They like to build nests in attics, garages, under the edge of roofs etc. I'd buy a can or two of wasp spray and take good aim and fire away!

They sound pretty. Are they dragonflies?
Is water puddling on your roof? If so, it's probably time to re-do your roof.
