Carpenter Bee Traps

Carpenter Bee Traps Ralph has been building and selling Carpenter Bee Traps in North Alabama for 7 years. There are many Carpenter Bees make holes about 1/2 inch in diameter.

Carpenter Bees can look like Bumble Bees; large, with yellow and black patterns. They are about one inch and may have some metallic reflections ranging from dark blue, yellow, green or purple tints. Their abdomens are shiny, which are different from Bumble Bees, which have more hair. They are commonly sighted in the spring hovering like a helicopter around eaves, porch rails, and under decks. Some

times carpenter bees are called "wood bees", because they bore into wood. Carpenter Bees do not eat the wood, the female carpenter bee bores a channel or main corridor in wood from 6 " to as long as 4 feet to lay their eggs in "galleries". She deposits an egg into the gallery, brings in a mass of pollen for the newly hatched larvae to feed on, and then seals it all off to ensure its development before she repeats the process for the next egg. They prefer unfinished wood and can drill and create tunnels in seasoned hardwoods, softwoods and decaying woods. Look for "frass", that looks like sawdust from these drilling areas. Hang our traps around your property where you see the bees hovering or where you already have damage to your exposed wood. No chemicals needed. The design of our traps invite the carpenter be inside and assure they do not get back out. $15 each or three for $40 local pick up, available downtown Huntsville, AL Meridianville, AL and Decatur, AL. We can ship with payment by PayPal. Shipping fee will be added.
