Avesta CS— Long-Lasting Carpenter Bee Control
Avesta CS is a broad-spectrum insecticide containing 9.7% Lambda-Cyhalothrin, renowned for its efficacy against various pests, including carpenter bees. Its microencapsulated formulation ensures a controlled release of the active ingredient, providing extended residual control and increased stability on treated surfaces.
Tempo 1% Dust— Residual Protection Inside Carpenter Bee Holes
Tempo 1% Dust is a ready-to-use insecticidal dust containing 1% Cyfluthrin, a powerful pyrethroid that offers quick knockdown and residual control of various pests, including carpenter bees. The dust formulation allows for easy application into carpenter bee galleries and other hard-to-reach areas, ensuring thorough contact with the pests.

Effectively Sealing Carpenter Bee Nests
Properly sealing Carpenter bee nests is a crucial step in preventing reinfestation and ensuring that the existing population is eradicated. Follow these guidelines to maximize the effectiveness of your treatment and protect your wooden structures.
- Allow Sufficient Time for the Insecticide to Work: After applying Tempo 1% Dust, wait 24 to 48 hours before taking further action. This waiting period ensures that adult bees have had ample opportunity to come into contact with the insecticide as they enter and exit the nest.
- Addressing Larvae for Complete Elimination: To fully exterminate the infestation, it is recommended to delay sealing the nest until late summer or early fall. This timing ensures that all larvae have hatched and been exposed to the treatment, preventing the emergence of a new generation of bees.
By following these steps, you can effectively eliminate Carpenter bee infestations and reduce the risk of future nesting in your wooden structures.
By combining Avesta CS and Tempo 1% Dust, along with the JT Eaton Duster, our DIY Pro Carpenter Bee Kit provides a
comprehensive and effective solution to eliminate carpenter bees and protect your home from future infestations.
