bluebottle fly

bees get their name from their ability to drill through wood and nest in the hole. Their drilling creates a bluebottle near-perfect hole, approximately 1/2 inch in diameter. The hole is usually located on the underside of the wood surface; including siding, soffits, decks, overhangs, fence posts fly and window frames. Although the hole appears to be only an inch or two deep, it rarely ends there. The female carpenter will turn 90 degrees and bore a channel from 6 inches to as long as 4 feet. This channel serves as a main corridor from which she will drill small chambers a few inches deep. These chambers become egg holders. She will deposit an egg, bring in a mass of pollen for the newly hatched larvae to feed on, and then bluebottle seal it all off to ensure it''s development fly before she repeats the process for the next egg. The male spends most of his time flying around the nest playing guard. This is bluebottle ironic as nature has left him ill prepared: he has no fly stinger! Only the female can sting. Simply killing the male will not solve your problem. You must treat the nest.
