Tells the bees to buzz off!
The media could not be loaded. Absolutely fantastic product, the results speak for themselves! We had a swarm nest in our chimney, but after spraying the entry points liberally with this (fired from a powerful water pistol), the very next day the queen evacuated into a nearby tree, then left the area completely. The cost of getting the bees removed professionally was eye watering, this was a simple, safe and ecologically sound way to send them packing!

Surprisingly effective
I bought this to deter wasps, who seemed to be making a bee line for the canvas cockpit cover on my old sailing boat despite it being November in the UK. It is surprisingly effective providing you re-apply it a couple of times a day. I used a few drops in an old anti-bac spray bottle (rinsed out, obviously). It didn't stop them 100% but the numbers dropped from 6-8 wasps a day to just one or two.Also, if you spray them directly, it seems to stupefy them rather than sending them ballistic, and they seem keen to leave! Just keep a good distance away. It has a pleasant Christmassy smell of cloves that freshens up the kitchen, too, especially if you've been cooking something like fish.

It really works without haring bees
This works! I discovered yesterday I had a ground nesting bee starting to go in and out under my garden hut. As I use it a lot as do my grandchildren I was concerned about possible bee sting. I did not want to kill it or any future young so I bought this product. I heavily sprayed round where I had seen it going in and out when I realised it was flying around. I then watched and it did not like the smell and moved off. I will keep the area sprayed over the summer in case it comes back and will also spray round windows of the house to keep bees and wasps out.

Strong smelling but not effective at deterring wasps
My use:I got this for using against wasps that have taken up home in the roof (made from pot pan tiles) of an outbuilding I use.After just having some roof work completed I didn't like the idea of having to get pest control in to then move all the tiles and try and work out where the wasp nest was.Scent:The scent is strong and although I diluted it, I left it stronger than recommended to try and get rid of the wasps extra quick. I quite like the scent as it is fresh and citronella is easily notable, therefore if you have to spray it in close proximity it's fine (unless you don't like citronella).Effectiveness:I'd observed where the wasps were coming in and out of and not only sprayed it directly on the tiles and in the gaps where they were coming in and out of, but I also sprayed it on some cotton wool balls so they were soaked and popped them in the gaps under tiles. This way even if the other solution was washed off with rain, the scent would remain.I have seen no effect on the wasps whatsoever and the most effective my spray bottle has been is when I used it to hit and kill a wasp directly. (It's worth noting that I didn't use the tiny atomiser bottle that comes with the product but that I used a washed out glass cleaner sprayer).Value:The scent is as strong smelling as they claim and therefore you do get a few dilute spray bottles worth, however, I found it ineffective. Maybe if it were sprayed in areas wasps had been in the past it would prevent them from resettling, but once a queen has taken nest I think it's unlikely this will dissuade her and the drones.I might try spray this around my studio to try and make it less appealing to mice (as they apparently have a strong sense of smell), although to date extra strong garlic powder hasn't worked (most likely because they have young in a nest so won't abandon them).Alternatives:I also tried foam wasp killer spray which does kill the wasps but is expensive. Also the foam disappears quite quickly so unless a whole load of wasps come out and touch it it's going to have a limited effect.What worked better is high-vis wasp killing traps filled with a paste of jam, diluted in hot water and white vinegar. The traps were full of wasps and trapped and killed a lot more in a short and longer space of time than anything else.Also for anyone thinking it's better not to kill them as they are pollinators, so are other insects like bees that the wasps kill to feed to their young. When using white vinegar in traps it only attracts wasps, hornet and flies. I've not had a single bee in any of the traps.*** If you've found this review helpful, please click 'like' and check out my other related reviews. ***

Good spray
Ok so far. Small bottle diluted goes a long way. I put a drop in water into a small travel spray. Spray it regularly into cotton wool balls in containers on windowsill keep away from pets and humans

DOESN'T WORK. WASPS ARE NOT BOTHERED BY IT!
Bought a new wooden climbing frame for the garden and for some reason the wasps love it and decide to land on it and rest there. Sure to say how unsafe that is for our daughter.Bought this and diluted it in water but made the mixture much stronger to be sure for it to work.Sprayed and soaked the climbing frame several time to make sure the wood absorbs all the oils.Wasps are not bothered whatsoever. Even sprayed it on one wasp and it just flew off and landed back on the frame again. Waste of money. Product does not do anything apart from us having a lovely smelling climbing frame now.

Does not kill bees only discourages them. (this is a positive).
Does what it says on the bottle. Safe and natural.

Wasp, bee & hornet repellent
It smells beautiful but I found that the wasps like it too!! So rather than being a repellent, it's seems to attract them. I am, however, using it as an indoor air freshener and its making my house smell lovely!
