Using your pine wood carpenter bee trap kit against carpenter bees is a great way to handle existing nest issues. Once you’ve identified the nests, we’ll break down how you can rid your home of existing carpenter bee nests in just four simple steps while directing them toward your new Best Bee Brothers carpenter bee traps.

Step 1: Use Your Total Bee-Fense Kit

1. Spray the citrus carpenter bee spray 3-4 times into each suspected or confirmed carpenter bee nest. If you notice activity around the nest, we advise waiting until sunset, when the bees are less active.

It’s also worth noting that most of the carpenter bees you do see are males, who are not capable of stinging. However, if provoked thoroughly enough, males will become aggressive in dive-bombing you, and in extreme cases, the female will emerge from the nest, and she can sting.

2. Wait 4–5 minutes to observe whether any carpenter bees emerge. Proceed to step C when you are confident the nest is empty.

3. Insert the Bee-Destroyer Stake into each hole several times, as far as it will reach. This will destroy any existing pollen plugs, which is where carpenter bee larvae can be found. The Bee-Destroyer Stake works best if inserted and twisted at the same time to ream out the nest hole and crush any remaining larvae.

4. Finally, after you’ve cleared the nest out, it’s time to seal it up. Insert a Hand Dipped Wooden Cork, placing the rubberized end into each hole to fill the entrance and create a comprehensive barrier that enterprising carpenter bees can’t chew through. You’ll want to continue pushing the bee plug into the hole, until the rubber is flush with the adjacent wooden surface, or as near to flush as possible. Refinish or paint to match the existing exterior.

Step 2: Add the BEE-Licous Bee Bait to Your Trap

Making use of your carpenter bee trap bait could not be easier. Apply a dime-sized amount of BEE-Licious Bee Bait to the collection chamber of your trap (where the dead carpenter bees are stored). That’s it! No need to rub it in or get any goop on your hands.

We’re really proud of all the science that’s gone into developing our proprietary BEE-Licious Bee Bait formula – and we’re even more proud of the results our customers have shared with us! But this product is meant to work in conjunction with your existing carpenter bee trap. That is, if your trap isn’t hung in a suitable location, no amount of bee attractant is going to help.

Step 3: Hang Your Pine Wood Carpenter Bee Box Trap

Our field-testing has proven that our carpenter bee box traps are simply more effective when hung up high in areas that receive plenty of sunlight. That’s why eaves and roof overhangs make great places to hang Best Bee Brothers traps. If you’re using both traps at once, we recommend about 15 ft. between them.

Each carpenter bee box trap includes everything you’ll need for installation: a hanging chain and an accompanying S-hook. Just screw the S-hook into place on top of the trap, fasten the mason jars into their trap grooves (with your BEE-Licious Bee Bait inside), attach the chain, and hang it up high. The trap will do the rest!

When the Best Carpenter Bee Pine Wood Traps are not in use, it’s best to store them in a shed or garage throughout the winter months to help preserve them for seasons to come.

Step 4: Apply Citrus Spray

Point, aim and shoot – simple, right? Getting the most out of your citrus carpenter bee spray doesn’t have to be overly complicated. Reapplying a generous coat to your outdoor furniture, railings or other wooden surfaces every few days during carpenter bee season will offer the maximum amount of protection, with one exception. While it is tempting to combine your carpenter bee traps and your new citrus spray, please do not! We repeat: DO NOT APPLY your citrus spray to your carpenter bee traps.
