Uh, you wouldn't happen to know the natural enemy of the carpenter bee, would you? Bad-bee-minton is fun, but not all that effective. I cultivate mud wasps because they'll fill in any hole..including fuel lines and small garden hoses. They're just not keeping up. [Maybe they made a deal with the bees...you guys get the carburators and air tools, we'll get the rafters]
I've seen those little buzzers hollow out a treated 2x10 in a year or two. It ain't like they don't have a few trillion board feet of standing trees and deadfall to play with around here smack in the middle of logging country...they gotta turn my house into sawdust? CS kills bees, doesn't it? Humm... CS water next to the house but not near the flowers? Plain water near the flowers. Ode At 06:51 PM 4/30/2004 -0500, you wrote: >Hi, > >This is a very good idea.
