Yo Ode, WD40 and other solvents (kerosene) (Thompson's wood sealer) makes the wood unpalatable-able to the buggers. I also nail them with a BB or pellet air gun, as they hover a lot. Dropping one in "hover mode" really is satisfying.
Someone also told me they LOVE tulip trees, the tops of which are seen loaded with flying carpenter bees. If you have such a tree, check out the top of the tree where the tulip"buds" are with binoculars. Usually there are dozens of them there. Good luck.
