Carpenter bee problem
Read lots of suggestions getting rid of carpenter bees but I'm still
at a lost for which method to use (home remedy or professional). The bees are inside of my garage (between the exterior brick, the wall, and possibly the attic). The most obvious entry hole is a ½ inch diameterthrough the exterior brick (I'm sure there are secondary entries as well). I want to wait until sunset and patch the hole (mortar?) after spaying a pesticide into the hole (which type I haven't decided???). Does this sound like a plan, or should I just call an expert (I rather save the money)? Any proven successes would be welcome. Thanks, |

I talked to a pro about my carpenter bees, and the guy said he wouldn't even worry about it. Must be you had a very minor infestation since carpenter bees can just about destroy a wood house. My guess is you just had a few making holes. They each make a hole, so if you have hundreds it can be a mess. Worse is the secondary problem, woodpeckers take that little hole and make a gaping cavrern looking for a treat. Dave http://members.tripod.com/~VideoDave |
