Sounds more like yellowjackets than actual bees. Bees, yes will drink from the pool, but generally aren't aggressive. Yellow jackets are the ones who will come bug you while eating, etc. The ones I find in my pool, I will get a net and pull them out, and put them on my grapes.Traci_Momof2 wrote: ↑Wed Jan 09, 2019 5:22 pm Ugh! I don't like bees. They bother us when we are trying to enjoy our pool. They do us a favor when they end up drowning themselves. Otherwise if they're too pesty my DH will swat them down into the water and kill them. They've stung both my husband and my son before in the pool. I don't want to be next.
Last time I got stung was back in 2017. It was night time. Didn't realize what had happened at first. Prior to that night, it had been 24 yrs since my last sting. Terrified I was going to have a terrible reaction, because it had been so long.
