It turns out that bees aren't too fond of citronella - who knew? This popular ingredient in candles and sprays is actually a bee repellent, which is pretty funny considering how much we love using it to keep mosquitoes at bay. It just goes to show that what's good for us isn't always good for our buzzing buddies!
Bees also hate the smell of mint - yes, you read that right, mint! While we love adding fresh mint leaves to our salads and drinks, bees find the smell overwhelming and will do just about anything to avoid it. Who knew that this refreshing herb could be so polarizing?
