Anyone notice whether or not bees seem attracted to their vaping? In the past 3 yrs at work, I've encountered 1 (ONE) bee that decided to pop inside my car to see what was up. Since I've started vaping in August, I've had at least 5 bees snooping around to see what that enticing smell was...weird. I don't particularly care for close encounters with bees. :blush:

I have not had bees following me yet. I just have fruit flies flying around my head now. LOL, just kidding

no joke... fruit flies LOOOOOOOOVE this stuff. We had a fruit fly invasion in our house for about a week. They were going crazy for the nic juice and killing themselves. I found a bunch dead INSIDE tanks I had left out to dry after cleaning. Glad I looked :p

Funny you mentioned that my brother and I were vaping inside his car while reinstalling the interior over the weeknd and we had a lot of trouble keeping bees out of our faces the entire time. I must've killed about 5 of those things, and those were just the ones I actually hit... let me tell you angry bees inside a small car are not a fun experience

IDEA: If you have some juice to spare, put out a few different kinds on small, flat plates and see which attract and kill more. Try High nic vs low, fruit vs tobacco, pg vs vg and see what happens, FOR SCIENCE!!

LOL... I actually sorta tried this... but to KILL them, not find out what flavor profile they prefer. They were making me, so, so, so insane that I squirted some crappy juice on a plate and left if for them to "feast" on.

Can't be sure this is what did them in, but they're gone now

There have been threads in the past regarding mosquitoes.
In fact, I started one of them myself.

But I don't recall seeing a thread about bees before.
But I did notice on a recent trip to Lake Tahoe that the "meat bees" were somewhat interested.

I HATE "meat bees" by the way.
They are evil little creatures with the power to ruin any meal.

Eeeek, please do not kill the honey bees! There were so few of them here this summer we had to hand pollinate the veggies. Meat bees :grr: Hate ‘em. They really hurt! Mosquitoes and deer flies, one of the few things I really miss about smoking. Blowing sweet smelling stuff at them just doesn’t work the same and I have lumps, bumps and skewer marks to prove it.
