Carpenter Bee Control
While they may look like harmless bumble bees at a glance, these “nature’s woodworkers” are more than just a noisy nuisance. They are a direct threat to the structural integrity of your home.
Carpenter Bee Control
Carpenter bees are large bees that resemble bumble bees, but are differentiated by a bare and shiny black abdomen. Luckily, male carpenter bees do not have stingers, though they can still be quite aggressive and will hover in front of people who get near their nests. Steer clear of the females, though. They do have stingers, and will sting if provoked.
Preventing an Infestation
To keep carpenter bees from returning, replace any damaged wood, keep wood painted and well maintained, and look out for new holes.
Avoid Property Damage
Though they do not pose a public health threat, carpenter bees can damage wood through their nest building, and cause structural damage to beams and furnishings around your home.
Seasons Matter
Treat in the spring when they first emerge, and again in midsummer to get rid of any remaining bees that might survive the winter. In the fall, fill the holes with wood putty or wooden dowels and have the entire surface painted or varnished.

Carpenter bees may look harmless, but they can cause serious damage over time. We offer safe, effective treatments to protect your home and keep these pests away for good.
