Fortunately, our team is here to help you with carpenter bee prevention and treatment strategies. You can keep these buzzing pests at bay and prevent them from causing you costly repairs. Read more if you’d like to know more about how to prevent these costly repairs, we’ll explore common questions related to carpenter bees and how PureDefense can prevent carpenter bee infestations and maintain a pest-free environment for your family.

Do Carpenter Bees Sting?

Certainly! There is a huge misconception about carpenter bees not being able to sting. However, female carpenter bees are actually capable of stinging. Though the chances of this happening are very minimal unless you disturb them by handling or intruding into their burrows. Oh the other hand, male carpenter bees actually can’t sting because they lack stingers.

Carpenter Bees vs Bumblebees

In the Atlanta, Georgia area, carpenter bees and bumblebees are both very common. In fact, i’m sure you can find both of them frequently buzzing around yards and gardens. People often get these 2 bees confused because they look quite similar. However, they do have some key differences you can look out for.

Carpenter bees are distinguished by their smooth almost glossy abdomens, whereas bumblebees have hairy abdomens with a yellow band towards the top of their abdomen where it connects to the thorax. Additionally, Carpenter bees are typically on the larger size compared to bumblebees. 

People often refer to several bee species as ‘wood bees’ and “carpenter bees’ where as carpenter bees are only one species of the many bees that live in and around wooded areas.
