results in 1 week (in spring)
Would RecommendWe have a wooden playset for kids. Hung this trap on the playset that had several carpenter bees routinely flying around it (plus wooden back porch nearby on back of house). After a week had over a dozen bees trapped - far more than I thought were even in my backyard.

A bust
Would Not RecommendBiggest waste of money. Does not work AT ALL. Get a tennis racket. That works much better and relieves stress.
Best Carpenter Bee Trap EVER!
Would RecommendIt is amazing! I have tons if carpenter bees that swarm by my front door! Instead of using a tennis racquet this year I got one of these traps. Within a few hours 2 of them entered the trap. Then in a few days I had 9!!! Still catching them!

It really works!
Would RecommendTo my surprise, this trap really works catching carpenter bees. Within hours it was collecting bees that were boring through wood exterior beams. I was desperate and purchased with limited expectations but it's truly worth the price.

Be patient.
Would RecommendIt took about three days, but after that the box started filling up with carpenter bees. 🐝 they were dive bombing us out on the deck, but now the problem is solved.

Pricey but works
A little pricey, for some wood and plastic, but works so well! I saw a carpenter bee looking to make a home in my deck, I put the trap close to where it was buzzing and within minutes the bee was inside!
