Do cherry stones really work as a bee repellent?

Answer by  BrendaG (6111)

Cherry stones work as a bee repellent, as well as for other insects. A natural repellent, they are clay granules with a repellent that hangs in a mesh bag. A kind repellent, it will "entice" them to leave the area and will not hurt them!

Cherry stones do work as a bee repellent this is because bees often stay away from cherry. Thus, it works very well. If you place a couple of cherry stones away from where the bees are centering, they are sure to never come back. Trust me, it really works as a repellent.

Yes, they do work as a bee repellent. They are actually very effective. Ever since I started using them, I saw a bit of a difference. Then I increased the number of stones and the bees were actually gone. I highly recommend using them and you will see a big difference.
