Had a termite guy come by the house for and inspection and treatment and I asked him about the bees This guy is a long time exterminator and an entomologist. Said a little know method is to use WD-40.
Spray it into any holes the bees make to kill the eggs, that’s the issue. The female lays her eggs in that hole and they hatch out, so simply killing the male or female does you little to no good. The WD-40 actually softens the egg shells and they never hatch. Set a couple traps out and spray every hole you see.
