I heard that and I thought Oh great! So the huge bees - bumble bees, carpenter bees, they can keep on getting you. Lovely.
And those carpenter bees are just plain nasty. They hunt ya down. Way worse than yellow jacks and wasps and all. And YJs are bad enuf!
Feel ing okay B2Y? For 5 bucks, you can do a YJ/wasp trap - lowe's or home depot is where I got mine. Mine lasted about 2 months, time for a new one.
