Save your Fences! Spring is here and so are the Carpenter Bees. Van Foster has kindly recommended a solution that he has found to be effective for managing these pests, found at http://www.e-bug.net The kits sold on this website contain a Drione dust to insert into the bee holes to treat the nests and an insecticide for spraying the fence to prevent future holes from being created. Also, corks are included for plugging the old holes.
More information on Carpenter Bees can be found on Wikipedia here.
The meeting was held at Café Monmarte at Lake Anne Plaza. All Board members were present (John Lovaas (President), Charlie Schoening (Vice President), Craig Palmer, Mike Pritchard, and John Hunter). 2 other WPC residents were present.
A Special Board Meeting is to be held at 6pm at Kalpyso Sport Tavern on Thursday 29th March.

Hi Folks,
Some of the Lake Anne Condo staff, working on their own time, have been helping WPCA homeowners bring their facades/lintels up to standard by power washing and painting/sealing the surfaces with the approved standard color.
Several people have already expressed interest, and a few homeowners have already had work done and report that they are happy with their work!
Anyone who is interested can contact Mr. Ken Greenway, 703-932-0205, to schedule such work if they are interested.
Please note that WPCA is not responsible for the work, nor is the Lake Anne Condo Association. Any arrangements are strictly between the individuals doing the work and the homeowner.
