Would RecommendHung it up and within the day I had a carpenter bee in it and then after 5 days I had 3. I am building a new deck and they were hovering to much for my liking.

Really good trap
Would RecommendWithin a day or 2 after I hung 3 of these traps in different locations on my fence, there must have been about 20 carpenter bees trapped. I leave the dead bees in, they seem to attract the other bees to the traps. That's 20 or so less bees burrowing into my fence or house. Worth the investment.
expensive but effective
Would Recommend$20 for a block of wood and a plastic box is a bit much. Yet they are effective. they have been up for 3 days, and there are several in each trap. Seem to be a haven for the bees just before and during a heavy rain storm.
It works!
Would RecommendI have used this product for the last two years to control the carpenter beetles that are in our area. After using it last season, I noticed that there was no additional damage to my wood fencing. This year I installed another due to the infestation in the woods behind my home and the untreated wooden fences surrounding a public utility compound. So far, after 3 days, it has caught 3 more beetles. It does not attract honeybees.

Doesn’t work
It doesn’t seem to work. Bees are ignoring it. I’ll give it some more time but so far not a good purchase.

Great Product
Would RecommendThese bee boxes work great I have 4 of them and the carpenter bees go in and can’t get out. You can choose to set free by sliding the door open but I do not I like me log home without chew marks in the logs.
