Well, I may have guaranteed snow sometime in
the next millennium. Today I made sure we would have some snow, because I put all our snow gear away. I put away all our snow shovels, everything we normally would need in 5 feet of snow. And put them in one of our out buildings where it is extremely hard to get to in the snow. Get ready.
Got a question for you guys that work around
wood and such. Back in the early fall I went out to my wood shop and got out all our snow gear. While I was in there I noticed some small circles cut into the wood. I made a note to mention that here in the hope that some of you might know what these critters are. Obviously I forgot to do so and today when I went back out to my shop to put away all our snow gear. There on the floor instead of a dozen little holes there were dozens of them. Perfectly round, probably one eighth in diameter.
I have heard of a wood borer but never encountered them before. Any of you familiar with these critters and how do I get rid of them?
Oh yea they are bees that look like a bumblebee
The bore into the wood and lay eggs. That way you get more next year ![[image]](images/uploaded/202602050032216983e5152f8d1.jpg)
We get them every year. I hurt them with a airsoft pistol. You can get traps to put out to keep the population down. The trap looks like a block of wood with the same hole that you see in the shop. They go in to investigate and don’t come back out.
