[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I am about to put a tennis racket outside.[/b] I'm trying to be cool b/c I don't like to kill pollinators, but the one that is guarding one set of stairs to our deck is a real a-hole. [/quote] LOL. This is what we do. These little buggers are pretty tough - one swat with a racquet usually isn't enough though. And, they may not sting, but they are destructive. They bore holes in wood to lay eggs. You can stuff the holes with steel wool to keep them from coming back. We also use carpenter bee traps. They are effective. Carpenter bees are ubiquitous where I live. [img]https://i.ytimg.com/vi/VKAjKFHcDkU/maxresdefault.jpg[/img][/quote] We .have something similar. Five carpenter bees so far.[/quote]
