Male carpenter bees can\u2019t sting at all. Females can sting, but they typically only do so if they feel threatened.<\/p>\n<p>Carpenter bees mainly fly from flower to flower looking for pollen, although they don\u2019t mind buzzing around people to get a closer look. Keep in mind that these bees can be a danger to your home, though.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Carpenter Bees and Wood Damage<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Carpenter bees get their name from their ability to chew holes in wood in order to get inside and build nests. They don\u2019t eat wood like termites do, but they can end up causing significant damage to wooden structures in homes. The holes they chew can also give homes an unsightly appearance, which can affect home value.<\/p>\n<p>Getting rid of these bees is important in order to protect your home from damage. However, it\u2019s crucial to do so carefully, so you don\u2019t upset them.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t let Eastern carpenter bees ruin your home this summer.
