Signs of carpenter bees on your home

Carpenter bees do their damage quietly, from the outside in. Here's what a Greenville pro looks for.

  • Perfectly round, half-inch holes drilled into eaves, fascia, decks, railings, or fence posts — like someone used a drill bit.
  • Coarse sawdust below the holes and yellowish staining streaking down the wood.
  • Large bees hovering around the roofline in spring — the males dart at you but can't sting.
  • Buzzing or scratching inside the wood as larvae develop in tunnels behind the surface.
  • Woodpecker damage — birds tear open the wood to reach the larvae, turning small holes into big ones.

Why Greenville homes get carpenter bees

Carpenter bees love bare, weathered, or unpainted softwood — exactly the cedar, pine, and fir used for decks, pergolas, porch ceilings, fascia boards, and fences. Wooded lots give them plenty of natural nesting wood right next to the house.

They're most active in spring, roughly April into June, when adults emerge to mate and bore new tunnels. Older homes and shaded, south-facing wood in areas like North Main, Augusta Road, and Travelers Rest tend to see the most activity. Because bees return to the same wood each year and expand their tunnels, what looks like one small hole this spring can become real structural damage within a few seasons.

Good To Know

Carpenter Bee questions, answered

Is the carpenter bee inspection really free in Greenville?
Yes — completely free. A licensed local Greenville professional inspects your home at no cost, with no obligation afterward.
Are carpenter bees dangerous, and will they sting me?
The males that hover and dart at you can't sting at all. Females can, but rarely do unless handled. The bigger concern is the wood damage their tunnels cause over time.
Can't I just fill the holes myself?
Filling a hole while bees are still inside can trap them and they'll often bore a new exit. A pro can confirm which galleries are active and the right sequence to handle them before sealing.
How soon can someone contact me?
Most Greenville-area homeowners hear back within a few hours. We match you with the nearest available pro, who reaches out at the time you prefer.
Do you serve areas outside Greenville?
