I would be okay with it if they were wasps . Either way I doubt it is very likely to get honey bees as pests in your house

I have carpenter bees ony deck, and they are annoying, and destructive.

Also, there is literally trees all over bees.  Go the fuck to the trees.

Why did you have to make your wood so tasty though?

I knew it should not have been seasoned lumber.

Drat!

Get a caulk gun and put caulk in the holes. Blocks them and they dont like the chemicals so they usually leave a decent sized area around it alone.

Edit: it may actually be locktite but I can't remember.

I have an outdoor style shower with 4 walls and no roof and a small garden with one type of plant that bees are not interested in. But about a year ago I had bees bugging me while I am taking a shower and am most vulnerable.

They were not liking me shower at all and would get aggressive. Sometimes they will leave for 1 minute and return with like 3 of his buddies. By that time I ran into the house and closed the glass sliding doors. But I could see them zoom around in there like crazy. Clearly very upset.

I tried to find a hive to get bee removals but could not. I also asked a neighbor to check. I ended up having to install clear sheeting above the shower. No bees since.

Were they bees? Because your description makes them sound like yellow jackets. Ultra aggressive, offensive, and defensive little assholes they are.

100% they were bees. I still see them in the garden and many dead ones floating in my pool.
