Michael Petruccelli asks; How do you identify, treat and prevent Carpenter Bees? (6)



Michael Petruccelli says;  Make sure your wood soffits, fascia, eaves, trims and siding are either painted or sealed with varnish. It is worth spending extra money for paint that has been treated with insecticide. Re-paint if needed in early spring and check for holes. Bees tend to come back to their old nesting grounds.
