I've never heard of a nocturnal bee. I'd guess they are some kind of wasp, maybe pigeon horntails or something related. I strongly doubt that the "stinger" is a stinger. It's probably just an ovipositor that they use for depositing eggs.

You need to positively identify them, if they are carpenter bees they could be silently destroying your house.
