Identifying a Carpenter Bee Infestation

What carpenter bees look like (and how to tell them apart from bumblebees)

The life of Carpenter Bees

Carpenter bees would rather move into an existing nest than build a new one. If they have access to old nests, they will ignore your carpenter bee trap. To direct new bees toward your trap, you’ll need to seal old nesting sites and offer a strong incentive not to return. Breaking the nesting cycle increases the likelihood of luring carpenter bees directly into your trap. #carpenterbee #carpenterbees
