How long do carpenter bees live?

On average about one year. Here is the “expected” life cycle from start to finish.

Eggs are laid late spring to early summer in nests drilled out in dead wood. Nests may contain several eggs. Soon after being laid they’ll hatch and feed on pollen for a month or two before pupating to adults.
