I'm sanding my workbench and there are carpenter bees buzzing around, looking to drill into the wood. Does anyone have tips on how to keep them away while I work?

You might want to try using an electric bubble blower in the area; it can help confuse them and keep them away. A strong fan can also blow them off course, so give it a shot!
A tennis racket can actually work wonders for keeping those pesky bees at bay! Just make sure you're swinging it carefully. I’ve had a similar experience—those bees like to get too close for comfort!
That's my go-to too! Just try not to hit any bees; they're more annoying than harmful. Also, there’s something kind of funny about it when you look back!
Haha, how many times have you swung and missed? I just let them buzz around me; thankfully, males don’t sting!
Good idea! I’ve found that creating a breeze can really help. Plus, it’ll keep you cool while you work!
