Eli5: Why do Bees rarely fly into the house? Unlike flies or wasps?

643 viewsOther

I always find flies flying around the house. Occasionally wasps. But I have never had a Honey bee or bumble bee enter the house.

For some reason, I’m irrationally afraid of bees and wasps and stinging insects. No problem with spiders or snakes or other insects.

Once when I was in high school, my sister and I saw a bee buzzing around our living room and I started to quickly depart the room and as I did, the big fat bee changed his flight path and flew right into my forehead.

I fainted!

He didn’t bite me or anything, just that a bee flying right into my face made me so frightened that I lost consciousness.
