Comments on: carpenter bees below wood deck http://www.carpenterbees.com/carpenter-bees/carpenter-bees-below-wood-deck.html How to treat carpenter bee nests and prevent them from drilling.

If you view the Drione Dust video showing how it floats around, you'll see why it's so effective. You can also choose to use the NBS REPELLENT instead of the Cypermethrin. It won't last as long when mixed with water and sprayed but if you add it to the paint or stain you use on the deck, you can get extended repellency for any pest without having to treat.

We definitely have carpenter bees around hovering all around us that we can't even enjoy our deck. At least three or even five bees at a time. We sprayed to kill them but more keep on coming back. I've read your site about cypermethrin spray and drione dust but how in the world can we get them from under the deck? Is there another way to treat without crawling under the deck? Please help.
