    They sell carpender bee traps at the local feed store. It always makes me sad to see them. Leave the carpender bees alone! They don’t need to be killed just because you think they are a pest.

      Carpenter bees aren’t a pest they’re a legitimate danger to life. Not directly like murder hornets are, but indirectly, because they destroy load bearing infrastructure.

      I don’t kill them, but they have damn near made Swiss cheese out of the crossbeam supporting my kids swingset.
