yes, bumblees can sting, but they wont. theyre very docile. I know it's hard to do, but try to ignore them. dont be scared of them. even if one lands on you, it's not going to accidentally sting you.
firstly, dont use any flowery/sweet perfume/lotions/shampoo/deodorant if you might layout, as youre just attracting a host of bugs with those. (if thats not working, or youre already sweet smelling, might want to try the eucalyptus repellent - as it doesnt smell bad, to me anyway)
also avoid bright flower-like colored clothing, especially violet & yellow. dont want to go lay outside smelling & looking like a flower, right?
secondly, you can effectively gently shoo away bees without swatting them. never smack/swat a bee. either kill it with a for-sure crush kill, or gently shoo/push it away without any attempt to harm it (i find find they get the message - maybe even a little psychically). otherwise if ya smack it without killing it, some poor allergic person is going to the ER.
