| Carpenter Bee Kit Carpenter bees are large (1 inch) yellow and black bees which become active in early spring. They resemble bumblebees but do not live in colonies, have fewer hairs and pollen sacs on the hind legs. They appear around homes and are a nuisance. Although it is rare to be stung by one, their sheer size is scary and people generally stay clear of them. Instead of getting rid of Carpenter Bees one by one, their nest is much more of a concern. These nests, if left untreated, will result in extensive structural damage and will result in costly repairs within a few years. The female will go in and out of the nest, so patience will show where the entrance is. Or if you see round holes about the size of the end of a pencil that is the entrance. There can be several holes in the wood. Killing individual bees with a liquid insecticide will not destroy the bee's young. THE NEST MUST BE TREATED! Here are the steps for getting rid of Carpenter Bees: First step is to treat the holes with the Drione dust. Pour the Drione dust into the duster and apply in each hole. Leave the hole open for about 3 to 4 days. This allows the female to fly in and out and carry the dust back to her chambers. Second step is to plug the holes. You can use the corks provided in your carpenter bee kit or caulk will work also. Please be sure you treat each hole before you plug it. If untreated when the larva hatches they will use the same hole to get out or they will bore a new hole. Third step is to spray the home down with the liquid spray. This spray will help control the bees. Please follow label directions. This can be sprayed over stains or paints. It will not harm the finish. Use a pump up type hand sprayer for application. The spray is something you can use each spring and or fall to help fight bees and many other pests. |
