| Keeping Bees Away From a Pool
|
|
We recently moved from one part of town to the other and we purchased an above ground pool. This time we seem to be getting invaded by bees. We've searched for hives in our yard. No luck! What can we do to enjoy our pool and not have the little ones get stung?

| Repelling Hornets, Bumblebees and Wasps
|
 Anyone know of any plants that repel hornets, bumblebees, and wasps? Certain plants (borage, dill, garlic, onion, fennel, sage, thyme, parsley, and marigolds) are said to help repel insects in the garden, but I would doubt their effectiveness when it comes to the likes of hornets, bumblebees, and wasps.

| Use Dryer Sheets To Repel Bees
|
|
Dryer sheets keep bees away. Place 2 or 3 sheets near your food and the bees will stay away!

| Use a Milk Jug for Trapping Yellow Jackets
|
 I saw this tip in "Country" magazine years ago and use it every year to trap yellow jackets and hornets. I have this one hanging in the grapevine. The yellow jackets like the apple juice better than the grapes. Lures them right in and they can't get out.

| Yellow Jackets Invading Dog's Food
|
|
Yellow jackets are invading our dog's food all day every day. Is there any way to get rid of them? She has been stung several times. It is real annoying to try to feed her with them around.

| How to Keep Wood Boring Bees Away from a Deck
|
|
How does one keep those huge wood boring bees away from your deck? My husband is spraying them with bug spray and I hate to find their dead bodies on the deck. Is there a more human way to get them to go elsewhere?

| Getting Rid of Digger Wasps
|
|
While repairing a lawn with patch seed, we noticed small yellow jackets coming out of the ground. How can we get rid of the underground nests now, without interfering with the new growth of our lawn. Help!

| Yellow Jackets In House
|
|
Help, we have hundreds (and I am not kidding) of yellow jackets in our home. We have probably killed 6 or 7 hundred but they are still here. Any advice. No one has gotten stung yet except the dog.

| What Attracts Wasps?
|
|
Wasps seek me out? I cannot go outside without being swooped at. I went outside today for about 10-15 mins. and I was "swooped" at enough for the folks I was with were startled. (6-7x) Is there something that attracts them and is there something that will deter them?
