Know before you buy
The trap mimics the natural nesting environment of carpenter bees by using pre-drilled holes that look like ideal tunnels. Once the first bee is captured, it releases pheromones that naturally draw other carpenter bees to the trap.
You should hang the trap in areas where you notice active drilling or where you have seen carpenter bees hovering, such as under eaves, porches, or near wooden siding. It is designed exclusively for outdoor use.
No, this trap does not require any chemical baits or lures. It relies entirely on the design of the pre-drilled holes and the presence of previously caught bees to attract others.
The glass jar is detachable, allowing you to easily unscrew it from the base to dispose of the contents. Once emptied, you can simply reattach the jar to continue using the trap.
The trap is specifically engineered to target carpenter bees based on their nesting habits. Because it does not use broad-spectrum attractants or sticky surfaces, it is unlikely to capture honeybees or other beneficial pollinators.
