how do scents attract bees
According to bee experts, bees are attracted to the pollen of flowers and plants they need to make honey. The scent emitted by these plants is what draws the bees to them. This indicates that bees are strongly influenced by their sense of smell. Bright colours and patterns that mimic the flowers they seek can also be attractive to them. In addition to the flowers and plants in your garden, the following have the potential to attract bees and wasps: Colognes and perfumes, particularly ones with floral notes. Soaps and lotions that have scents. Laundry detergents and air fresheners. Scented candles. Flower-printed clothing and fabrics.
