This Means War!


Do you know of the hell of the carpenter bee? Carpenter bees get their common name from their habit of boring into wood to make galleries for the rearing of young. These are worldwide in distribution with 7 species occurring in the United States. They don't have a hive as honey bees, but are solitary bees.The female Carpenter bee can get into small areas,boring holes. They are perfectly round, about 3/8 " in diameter.


How do you kill them? I am at war with them. They are drilling holes in my porch that I went at hanging off a ladder to plug them up, I dance around the yard with a fly swatter and smack them down so I can rush over and stomp them, I spray them, and yet they buzz still yet. They have insane exo-skeletons, maybe a sledgehammer, or string their dead bodys on a piece of string as a spoil of war and as a warning to the others?


The males can't sting me, and the only reason I am brave enough to fight this war.
