These plugs where an exact match for my existing plugs which you pretty much have to destroy when removing. I needed about 110 so I will have enough for the next time my exterminator has to remove them for the 5 year treatment.

I like them. They look much nicer to me then other patch stuff like calk/cement etc.. I have foud other termite services won't touch them or drill into them as they state they will plug the hole. I've told them they drill out to no avail so I just take care of removing and replacing them myself.

Maybe my 1/2 in drill bit is a little bigger than 1/2 in or these are a little smaller. I was hoping I could put these in the 1/2 holes in my concrete patio but they have a small gap around the top. It doesn't look as nice as I thought it would. Would be better if these had like a slightly larger cap on top to cover the gap nicely. They would work well to shove into a hole if you need a base to keep filler from falling through.

I tried to use the plastic plugs on 10 bee holes under my deck.  I found that the bees were not given enough training to consistently create perfect 1/2" holes in the wood. These plugs could not be hammered into many of the holes.  I ended up bringing a drill with a 1/2" spade bit outside. After not being able to get to some with the bit, I abandoned the plug theory and brought out my caulk king gun. That worked. It might help to taper the nose of these plugs to allow you to get it seated and then driving it home. They sound great in theory but were not consistently able to do what was advertised.

  Expert response:
Thank you for your feedback. Some of the 1/2 inch plugs have not been working for Carpenter Bee holes.  This has never been an issue until this year.  For now, we'd recommend using the 3/8 inch plugs for carpenter bees, which seem to be working well for our customers.  You can find the Trebor 3/8 inch plugs here.

I have carpenter bee holes by the hundreds and could not find the small corks I used in the past to plug the hole after I put the powder in to kill them. They must be used in construction for something else but they do not fit into the holes at all. If someone locates the small corks they work great. I returned them and they issued credit without any problems.
