Worth it
Would RecommendThese bee traps work great! We have had serious issues with carpenter bees, but these traps seem to really work. I have already caught close to 10 bees between 2 traps, and just purchased 2 more of these. They are simple but effective.

Doesn’t work
Would Not RecommendIt’s a gimmick. Installed as directed right need where I usually see carpenter bees nest. They fly right around it and go to their usual spot. I did catch a black widow-looking spider though!

Pretty good trap after you have a bee inside
Would RecommendCons - this trap needs a bee inside for it to be effective. I messaged the manufacturer, as requested, to let them know this. It was very effective AFTER I put a bee inside. Pros - once a bee was inside, they were much more easily lured in and stopped trying to drill holes into my new construction. It was also nice to have the see-through bottom to track the bee entries.

This trap worked great!
Would RecommendI bought one at first to see if it worked because these cost $20 a piece. I had already killed 25 bees with a tennis racket but they just kept coming back so I had to find a better way. I hung one trap and left it for a few days. When I came back there were 10 Bee's in it but my house was still swarming in bees. I went out and bought six more and hung them. Within a few hours one trap already had four Bee's in it.
