We often see carpenter bees in the early and late summer. That is because their life cycle is summer to summer. They hatch and emerge in late summer and hibernate over the winter. In the spring and summer of the following year, they lay eggs and then die.
Carpenter Bees prefer untreated, and unpainted wood. They will often find the one little spot on a fence or house that is untreated and bore into there.
The carpenter bees damage to the wood will look like a 1/2″ hole in the wood but the INSIDE of the wood can have significant damage.
Treating for carpenter bees involves applying an insecticide dust to EACH AND EVERY HOLE. This process achieves three very important results:
1) Kills the carpenter bees that are in the hole
2) Kills the carpenter bees when they return to the wood
3) Kills the new bees that hatch and emerge during the late summer.
