Carpenter bees are an aggressive, destructive, and dangerous infestation that does not just damage your home but in-dangers your entire family. Small children are especially in danger as they tend to explore and will undoubtedly find a nest if they are on your property. Pets are also in danger as they tend to smell and lick things they discover and beneath every carpenter bee hole in wood is a mess of horrendously bad-smelling goop called Frass. Frass is a combination of bee parts, feces, and wood dust. It is sticky and disgusting and pets love to lick it. This will aggravate the bees and they will likely attack your dog, possibly in the mouth which can make eating difficult and risks the animal’s life.

The carpenter bee is a complex creature. The females are the workers and breeders and warriors of the colony while the males are essentially breeding machines that have no other purpose afterward but to annoy people or animals that approach the nest. They cannot sting and they cannot drill holes. They cannot make bee bread either which females make to feed the larva that hatches from their eggs. The female can sting and is very aggressive and territorial. She will attack in a swarm, anyone who bothers them. The females build catacomb-like tunnels with inlets for laying eggs. The female will lay an egg on a piece of bee bread and seal up the entryway. The larval will grow into an adult bee and break out of the inlet to become a worker or a male breeder.
