  • Carpenter bees are here

    For the past couple of weeks, you may have noticed what looks like bumble bees flying around your outdoor storage building, barns or even your home. These insects are called carpenter bees.

Now, they are starting new tunnels or expanding old ones in order to raise a brood of about 6 larvae during the summer. Accumulations of sawdust may be the first sign that their work has begun.
