We watched one exhibit the exact same behavior yesterday outside the barn door. When I went back out on the patio a couple hours later, the bee was gone and there was only one wasp way over on the side. I'll look up the carpenter bees and see if that was it. Betterbloom, I'd have to buy a lot of Pam in order to cover my deck. It's huge, especially moving here from Cali. I think my deck is about as big as my entire house was in Orange County, CA. Here's a side shot of it but it wraps around to the other side of the house that's hidden in this picture. If the wasps are taking wood fibers for their nests, they have plenty to choose from! I'll keep the Pam trick in mind tho when I finally get my hummingbird feeder up. Does it work for the ants too? |
