Hmm. Does ST know what Carpenter Bees are?

Posted by Spawn Jul 26 '21, 12:02

Just had a homeowner argue that I was basically making them up.

Responses:

Thanks all. I usually refer to them as wood boring bees. But using both names, guy thought I was bonkers. -- nm - Spawn Jul 26, 12:18 1
- Kid, your face is boring -- nm - oblique Jul 26, 12:18
Yes! They're kind of cute, as insects go. -- nm - Reagen Jul 26, 12:18
Yeah, we get a few around here, usually late April/early May -- nm - znufrii Jul 26, 12:13
Somewhat -- nm - mara Jul 26, 12:12
yes. -- nm - Andie Jul 26, 12:08
Absolutely. We've got a small hive of carpenter bees in the backyard in fact. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Jul 26, 12:07
Yes. They long to be close to you. -- nm - Dano Jul 26, 12:06 1
- boooooooo -- nm - prayformojo Jul 26, 13:27
oh yes -- nm - chicken daddy Jul 26, 12:06
nope -- nm - mud Jul 26, 12:04
Yes. -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 26, 12:04
I've heard of carpenter ants, which can fly. Haven't specifically heard of carpenter bees. -- nm - Beryllium Jul 26, 12:03 4
- Why do birds suddenly appear, every time you are near... -- nm - zeitgeist Jul 26, 12:07
- As flying, stinging insects go, they sound quite tame. Except for that "digging into dead wood" part, of course. -- nm - Beryllium Jul 26, 12:06 2
  - Sadly, wood siding falls under that "dead wood" category. -- nm - Spawn Jul 26, 12:10 1
    - Yes, I was pretty sure that's where this was going. :) -- nm - Beryllium Jul 26, 12:52
