Honey bees are drawn to salt water swimming pools, which may surprise you. This is more common at periods of the year when the nectar flow is weaker, such as early spring (February-March) or later in the summer (from July on). In an attempt to overcome this problem, I’ve done bee tracking before. Normally, I would not accept work like these due of the complexity and the possibility of the bees being on private land. However, I wasn’t really busy at the time, and the proprietor was adamant.
He’d just finished putting in a very nice, pricey salt water pool. Honey bees were going to the pool and sipping the salt water, making it difficult for his family to enjoy it. I chose a cloudy day to monitor the bees because they are much easier to spot against a cloudy sky when gazing up at the sky. When the bees exited the pool after a drink, they all flew in the same direction. I went in the direction where the bees were flying.
There were buildings and roads around, as well as a lot of trees. I was about to give up when I decided to take another way. As I was doing so, I came across a house with around 7 or 8 bee hives in the rear. The house was half a mile away and perfectly aligned with the direction in which the bees were flying away from the pool. While I was able to locate the bees, I have no idea what happened next; all I can hope for is that these neighbours were able to resolve their differences.
Here are some things you can take to reduce the number of honeybees that visit your salt water pool:
If you have a neighbour who keeps bees, ask them to provide a supply of water for the bees. Bees appear to prefer dirty pond water to fresh water, and they prefer to collect it away from their colonies. As a result, do not place the water near them. Alternatively, offer your neighbour honey in exchange for the salt water their bees consume.
Set out pie pans filled with sand, then fill with water from your swimming pool just to the surface of the sand. The idea is that the bees will land on the sand and sip the water from there. Move the pie pans a few feet back every day. Repeat this process every day until the bees have left the pool. This is a method of teaching the bees to visit the pans rather than the pool. You may have to retrain the bees if you skip a day of filling the pans with water.
