Carpenter Bees

Carpenter Bees

Often, you will find Carpenter bees in the late-spring or early summer hovering outside your home, searching for a mate and a favorable site to construct a nest. Carpenter bees spend the winter as adults in wood within abandoned nest tunnels. They emerge in the spring, and after mating, the female bee excavates tunnels in wood to lay her eggs. The entrance holes and tunnels are perfectly round and about the diameter of your finger. Female Carpenter bees may excavate new tunnels for egg laying or enlarge old holes.

Biology of Carpenter Bees

Male Carpenter bees are aggressive, but are harmless since they lack stingers. The female Carpenter bee, however, can inflict a painful sting. After a sting, the affected area will become red, swollen, and painful. People allergic to insect stings can have a more severe reaction and should seek medical attention. If allergic, Carpenter bees control is a must. Think Pest Products Online for all your bee exterminating needs. These insects can cause considerable damage to wood which has been used for nesting year after year. They are known to bore holes in wood trim near eaves and gables, fascia boards, porch ceilings, decks, and siding of homes. Paint wood surfaces since Carpenter bees prefer to attack wood that is bare, weathered, and unpainted. Keep structures closed when Carpenter bees are actively searching for nesting sites.
