Save your money and go to HD or Lowes and buy the appropriate pesticide. Wait unitl late evening, just about dark and spray their holes.

Re: Exterminator for Carpenter Bees Needed!
when they are out, be sure to caulk / silicone the hole, otherwise others will find there way there.

We used Albie. I think it was $195.
They came back until they were all gone. It was part of the deal. They had to come back twice for mine.

The spray nozzles are usually the type that can be sprayed from a distance.

TNT exterminators based in Nassau. We paid 179.00 with a 6 month guarantee, they had to come back 2x. They are gone- I hope. We tried to spray with stuff and they stayed away for a few minutes and came back. We sprayed from the car. We ended up having 26 nests in our fence. They came out of nowhere. Be very careful and get a professional to get rid of them. I hate bugs!

Certain things my husband treats himself but, for carpenter bees I have used Suburban. Unfortunately, we had a lot of holes.

Re: Exterminator for Carpenter Bees Needed!
Last summer we had a huge issue with wasps and yellow jackets. We orginally used suburban exterminating, I believe and they didn't treat the areas well enough and they swarmed back.
So, we ended up calling arrow. They guarantee their work, and if they come back, they do it for free. They are so worth the money because I had a peace of mind and the BUGS went away!!!!
