Don't Let Carpenter Bees Damage Your Home This Summer – Here's What You Need to Know!

Carpenter Bees are active now in many parts of Philadelphia including Northern Liberties, the greater Northeast, and the Philadelphia suburbs including Bucks and Montgomery Counties. —Carpenter Bees are one of the most damaging intruders, and you might not even notice them right away. Unlike bumblebees, these solitary insects don’t live in hives. Instead, they tunnel into wood to lay their eggs—often choosing your home’s siding, deck, porch, or wooden trim as their target.

Why Carpenter Bees Are More Than Just a Nuisance

Carpenter bees may look harmless, but their damage can be costly. Over time, their burrowing can weaken wood structures and lead to serious long-term damage. Even worse? Woodpeckers are attracted to the larvae inside the tunnels, compounding the destruction.

Here are just a few signs you might have a carpenter bee problem:
• Round, smooth holes in wooden surfaces
• Sawdust piles underneath eaves or railings
• Increased bee activity around wooden areas
