So far I have not seen the attraction to the bait that I was hoping for.
The bait will make your traps more attractive to carpenter bees, but positioning, timing and repairing active nests is a big factor. Good luck and reach out if you need any help.
Great products I've been using them for years.
I have purchased these traps before. The new ones are an impressive improvement. However, it would be helpful to put an instruction sheet in to show how to open the traps and put them together. Did figure it out, but really was unsure if they were built to come apart the way they do.
Thanks for letting us know. There should have been an instructions and tips & tricks card included with your traps. Glad you like the changes!
Everything processed as it should and efficiently.
I have purchased 10 of these from bee brothers. 3 different styles. I have had great results. Like walking outsize a month ago to see 100’s swarming my log cabin to today, where I can only count 5. If you have an infestation and are not catching them, it’s not the traps fault. You need to make their former homes uninhabitable. The key is to locate all their little holes, force them out and kill them on the exit. I have had great results with pushing a long zip tie in at different angles. It seems like there is always more than 1 bee and multiple branches. The zip tie rarely kills them, but can agitate and make them exit. (Can be startling up on a ladder with face a few inches away because they love to next in the logs behind the roofline trim) a blower with a small tube rigged to end or can of duster will also get them buzzing in the nest and tell you if the hole is active or not. I use puffer and shoot delta dust into hole. Then use can of duster to blast it all throughout the different tunnels. Wait a few days then seal the hole. At that point the ones still alive will be a lot more apt to go into the trap. I also put a few bees in the trap and put bait on each hole. I have gotten over 100 trapped and 140 killed with a putty knife, foot, block of wood, etc while forcing them out the home or walking around to see where they are going to find best trap locations. I had to experiment with where best locations are. I thought the areas that had the most holes bored would be best but for us it’s just under the eaves and peaks of roof line, and same for each dormer.
Thanks for all the great tips!
The website was easy to navigate and it was very clear with emails when my purchase would arrive. While I had issues with shipping as my state does not allow pesticides through delivery, everything ordered has worked great.
Shipping was fine put the product did not work. I have had it out for over a month and have not caught a single bee. the bees have done some damage to my deck and continue to do so.
So sorry to hear that. You may want to try a new location for the traps. Small changes can make a big difference.
The traps worked so goo I came came back for more.
We love these products and have used their traps for several years. Small, Elegant and effective. We have caught well over 100 bees in the past few years. We have bought the newest model to replace our 8 year old units that are sun baked. Worth every penny! The new unit has caught 5 bees in the past 2 weeks.
Everything received was in good shape. Arrived shortly after order was placed. A little better assembly instructions would be helpful. There was plenty of extra string was provided. There was enough for replacement in future. I bought from you in the past and have been very satisfied. If you had replacement parts for those traps that would be helpful, had use old pill bottle to fix one of the traps.
They really work. Saw dead bees the day after we put up traps
The website is easy to navigate, the products are explained properly, ordering is easy and shipping is quick.
Very effective and durable products. Responsive customer service.
The bee traps work great just as advertised. Timly delivery. Will be purchasing more!
The bee traps and the bait is working very well. I will definitely keep using them and will purchase more.
Your product really works, it catches bore bees very effectively. Easy to assemble and put up.
