I am allergic of bee stings, I see too many bees and wasps in the swimming pool. Is there any waterproof repellent that will keep them away from me.

I do not believe so. I have never heard of one. Usually bees will not bother you if you do not bother them. Wasps are more aggressive, but they are usually not a problem near ponds or swimming pools. Repellents are not effective for bees, hornets and wasps.
Wasps will build nests under the top rail and inside the wall posts of above ground pools.
Yes there is at my pool bees are common so when you see a bee go under water for a long time or go under water and swim away or stay still if 1 is on is on you. if you feel like your are gonna swat think of happy thoughts and laugh
I have been told by many people, if you put vinegar in your pool water it will repel bees. They are attracted to open water sources, but if that source is contaminated, with say vinegar or peppermint essential oils, they will stay away from it.
you would have to use so much that it would affect the ph of the pool
Go to your local pool store and get a product called Skillit. It is an algaecide used in pools. The reason the bees/hornet come is for water, they are able to float on the water to drink.
The skillet changes the surface tension in the water so they can't float... as soon as they start to touch the water they feel they can't float and fly away. Dose weekly with Skillit until they stop coming around after a few months you MAY be able to stop as they will have found a better place (and most likely made homes closer to THat other water source.
