We live in a log cabin (150 yrs old) and we have a problem with carpenter bees eating at the wood. The do not eat at the logs but they do eat at the softer wood in the face boards around the house and at the wood that makes up the porch. The wood is unpainted. I am thinking of painting the wood with a latex paint. Would that help or cure the problem? Is there a pesticide I could put in the paint? Any ideas. (link)
Try creosote, will smell for a while but the bees will leave the wood alone :)
