Will this product work on Bee's nests?

I tried it twice on a yellow jacket nest (in house soffit). I treated in late afternoon rather than at night, so not all the yellow jackets were in the nest. Returning yellow jackets were hesitant to go into the nest, but eventually did and the nest is still active. So I would say this product is NOT effective at killing yellow jackets. But yellow jackets are wasps, not bees, so there may be a difference there.

I doubt it but BP 100 Pyrethrin Permethrin Fogging Chemical 418640 will.... I ordered this after the Black Flag didn't reduce my carpenter bee problem. It's a little pricey but the bees are gone....

We have not tried this on ground bees....if you or anyone else has please let us know how it works.

No, you'll need to spray it on cedar blocks, etc. If you have cedar closets, that'll work.

Sorry it took so long to answer back. I've used only on carpenter ant and wasps!! It works great on those two.

I am not sure, but it works for bees and anything else that flies and can get through the opening.

I haven't used this particular brand but I have used other sticky traps and basically they trap anything that lands on it. However, I only ever saw one bee on any of my traps. I don't think the bees naturally gravitate to what you are coating, as they go for pollen on the flowers. So theoretically they are much less likely to land on it.

I'm not sure exactly what you are asking but I can tell you this: it worked! After years of problems with carpenter bees at my mailbox post, this simple thing eliminated the problem!! Don't expect overnight results - but if you are patient, it will slowly but steadily eliminate the bee population.

Not at all. Bumble Bees (and honey bees for that matter) have no interest in exploring the holes in our traps. Bumble Bees nest in the ground.Tony, Chrisman Mill Farms, 859-553-9070

I don't think it matters. It does not work. Bees want to make their own holes it seems

I don't think it impacts bees. I have a honeysuckle and never seemed to impact their population while this product is in use which usually last 6 weeks from spraying.

The short answer is: MAYBE (if the bees come into direct contact with the solution before it dries it could cause some problems). Once it dries, it should not present a problem, unless it happens to be on the pollen bearing parts of the plant flower AND is combined with any kind of insecticide. If that happens, the contact between the bee and that pollen surface will likely cause insecticide transfer to the bee, and, of course, would then be fatal to the bee. Virtually ALL insecticides will result in the same outcome if the bee has such contact. If insect (bee) absorbs the insecticide, directly or indirectly, the result is fatal. However, if ONLY a fungicide is used, then the bees will likely survive such contact. Hope that answers the question

I do not believe this unit will attract bees. The scent it generates is like used toilet bowl and bees dont want it.

So far, I have not had it attract bees, but I can't say for sure that it wouldn't.

For carpenter bees only, I wouldn't put anything in the jars as it could attract wasps, ants or other insects. The trap works great! Just got home and checked my traps and have another 15-20 bees in the jar and not drilling into my deck anymore. Couldn't be happier. You just need to hang the traps where the bees are and they will find it.

I think it works on all ants. I'm not sure though since I'm from New York and I used it strictly for bees. But I think it works on all insects - and more... For example, I also had ground bees and when I sprayed it into the ground, not only did the bees vacate, but worms were running (crawling) for their life too!

As a rule I don't kill any type of bee as they kill other bugs or make honey and pollinate plants. That being said it would probably kill a honey bee but I don't think its strong enough to kill a wasp or a mud dubber ( big slow black bee ). Good luck

No, it does not kill bees not even hornets. But as I recall it was extremely thick and smelly.
