Carpenter Bee Control

Effective Strategies for Managing Carpenter Bee Infestations

Why are Carpenter Bees a Problem?

Carpenter bees can cause significant damage to wood structures in your home as they bore into wood to create their nests. While they don’t eat the wood, the tunnels they create can weaken structural elements and lead to costly repairs. Furthermore, male carpenter bees can be aggressive towards humans during nesting season, although they lack stingers.

Carpenter Bee Facts

  • Carpenter bees create smooth, round holes as entrances to their nests in wood.
  • They prefer untreated, exposed wood and are often found in eaves, window trims, and fascia boards.
  • Unlike termites, carpenter bees do not eat the wood but excavate it to build their nests.
  • Females can sting but typically only do so if provoked.
