put out a pan of sugar water away from the pool closer to their hives if you know where they are.

Maybe some sugar water in another location to attract them and regular water next to it. I’m pretty sure there’s a certain recipe to use for spring. Not sure that would work on wasps though. What do wasps even eat?

They are pollinating in frangapani tree right next to pool. I wonder if I put the sugar water in pans in and under tree and gradually move them away? Yes our wasps are different to yours aswell.

Your ducks may drink the sugar water.

I will. I'm so excited about them.

My bees flock to the pool for the calcium deposits at the waterline.

Our pool water comes from bore originally so has loads of mineral! Maybe I just take the water from pool for their dishes

My duckys are nowhere near house sadly . Maybe I should let them in to clean out bugs

Put some ducks in the pool! - Seriously: Where my ducks are, there are neither bees nor wasps, at least not for long… Only bumblebees seem to be safe, my ducks don't like to eat those, no idea why.
