Bees after Waxing car
Hey all
Don't know if this fits in here but anyone have problems with bees swarming their car after waxing it? I used Eagle one's nanowax, and previous occasions never had this problem. I was wondering whether it's the wax smell as well as the car being Hot Lava. (Summer here in australia) Waxed it yesterday and around 10-15 bees was all over it ...couldn't get in the car for a while lol

I like watching the wasps pull all the squashed bugs off my bumper in the late summer. I have counted as many as twenty busily cleaning up the mess after an early morning/evening drive.

Im having issues with bugs, i usually wax in the afternoon inside my garage with the door open. Once i start waxing all kinds of bugs start flocking in and pile up on the roof and hood of the car. My car is swp so no pollen look alike here lol.

Sometimes when waxing i find them chasing me around.
People passing by must get a kick of a kid running around a shiny blue car in terror. Fucking bees.
