Carpenter Bees are Wood Boring Bees<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Carpenter bees are good for plants and flowers, but they can be bad news for your home. Although these bees<\/a> don\u2019t feed on wood, they chew their way through it in order to create their nests. Here’s some information about the life cycle of these bugs.<\/p>\n

Winter and Spring<\/strong><\/p>\n

Young carpenter bees<\/a> stay hidden and safe inside the tunnels they build during the winter months. When the weather gets warmer, they mate and begin building new tunnels or enlarging existing ones to accommodate their eggs and larvae. These bees prepare special chambers for their young by leaving a mix of pollen and nectar to serve as food. The chambers are then closed up to keep the eggs safe.<\/p>\n

Summer and Fall<\/strong><\/p>\n

After going through the larval stage during development, young carpenter bees leave their tunnels in late summer in search of nectar. As the weather gets cooler, they go back to their tunnels to spend the winter months.<\/p>\n

If you have trouble with these bees at any time of year, it\u2019s important to have Monmouth County NJ pest control companies<\/a> handle them, so you don\u2019t get stung. Most carpenter bees don\u2019t sting, but some do have stingers and will defend their nest.<\/p>\n

When carpenter bees are affecting your home\u2019s appearance, Monmouth County NJ pest control companies are here to help. Give Allison Pest Control<\/a> a call, and we\u2019ll make sure these bugs are eliminated.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
